      i have a 97 camaro. i just snap the bulbs out of the back of the housing and silicone the new ones in. u hafta let them dry for a few hours before putting them back in the car but it works and is a lot cheaper. I put in silverstars. I guess i dont know if you can do that with the flip up lights but i bet you can if you try.

        ^I do no think that will work.

        Bubba, they have never made HIDs for sealed beam. This is because no OEM company that puts sealed beams HID in there cars.

        try eurolights.com

          Ok.. cuz I think P was telling me one time about finding HID's for the s bomb...

          I'm sure there's a way to make something work, lol...

          If not wouldnt that headlight tint at Tintmasters work?

                  I know it works on GPs as well because I've done it.

                  At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                        I know the older camaros with the LT1's came with the 4 square lights and those are identical.

                          blue headlights?

                          legacy image

                          Please don't.

                          Changing the bulb color via a tinted lens or glass actually reduces the amount of light you'll perceive as the driver. It will very likely increase the perceived glare for oncoming traffic.

                          Changing the type of bulb without changing the optics of the housing will almost certainly blind oncoming traffic.

                              Why do you want blue bulbs? That is stupid.

                                blue doesn't mean more output.

                                  obviously this chick wants em cuz she wants blue head lights, not because she wants more output.
                                  "get the kid a fucking happy meal"
                                  I believe she is refering to HID's. H4 Conversion plus HID kit

                                    i looked at the hid's there what i'm looking for. out put is not a concern for me i want them for the look. you all know they look sweet lol. i tried the silver stars in it and they didn't make a difference for seeing compared to the old ones i had in there. (Just so there is no mix up i know there not blue just in case you think im a ditz lol) I just like the way they look.

                                        they serve no purpose other than aesthetics. HID's aren't the blue lights he is refering to( I don't think). HID's have A very high output and in a good housing they can be a vital mod to any car.
