84' Headlight Options

  • Sponsors (?)


Thats basically what i used in the Iroc...they make that kit to fit H1 HID bulbs works great i love the look..
Yeah same concept that one fits an h4. I had them on my blazer when i was 17 with diamond cut lenses and 6k hids and everyone hated me
 
I did a kit from theretrofitsource.com I think it came out looking clean and they are a good solution to our cars junk lighting. I think something like this in a stock housing with a green led ring would get you what you were looking for and you would get the added benefit of being able to see at night.

That looks great! Only problem is there is no projector that will fit the four eyed headlights. You'd have to take the glass lense off and use a headlight cover. Takes a bit of work. But has been done. Here's a Capri to get the jist.

Everyone does understand that pre-87 are all sealed beam headlights, right?
Teh noobz , if you check my post i addressed this , the one i posted will keep the glass stock lense and my85gt mentioned before so it would not chnage the look of the car but would allow nick to run an obnoxious green hid kit in them for the track which would look awesome at night
 
I have all new head light wiring. Not sure if it will support the load of hids but that is easy to change. I'm a bit confused with all of the ideas floating around now lol. I want it to appear relatively the same as the current lights but light up green. I like the idea that @madspeed has but I think they are too big. @MY 85 GT do you have a link for the lights you used?

They make HID housings that will fit in place of the bulbs but they all look terrible.

I can't say that I've ever met an HID conversion for a 4-eye that didn't look it was tossed in by the Pep Boys service center with Altezza in the rear and an under-glow kit.

Exactly why I wanted to find something that looks more original

What i sent you should fit , same as your stock glass housing. I dont think there are too many sizes as far as those lights went. And me and madspeed posted the same size so i would believe thats it

The hids are simple. Being that they only draw high amperage for about the first 30 seconds and once on use i think no more then 3-7amps once lit.
 
Thanks to everyone who replied! I'm going to poke around and as soon as I come to a decision I'll post an update. A lot of good ideas in here. Glad I asked
