want to do the headlight conversion but i can find but one on ebay. and none in the local junk yards. fatal? anyone?
idears please

 

anyone?

 

try www.car-part.com they have a national lookup. Is there a tech artical on the conversion? Got any pics? I may be interested in doing my car if theres no body work or painting involved (mines all done ).

 

fatal 88 and another person on the board have done the conversion. no tech articles yet but it seams pretty straight forward.

 

Have fun looking for monte ls lights. All the low-rider guys want to put the monte euro clips and light on there older cars. You could also use celebrity or caprice 1-piece headlights

 

here around Detroit those Monte's are sort of hard to find. The ghetto boys buy them all up and paint them money green with gold flakes and hydraulics with white vinyl tops. So if you do find one with a nice front clip, chances are that its either too nice of a car to steal the lights out of, or the header panel's been long gone.

Sometimes I see them when I take long rides out in the country but they're usually sitting on the side of the road for sale and not advertised in any paper or trader mag. The Euro headlights were on 87-88 only which makes them even more rare.

 

Go with celebrity headlights. You can get them for about $20 a piece on ebay complete with bulbs, and sockets.

 

that sounds cool.
anyone got a pik of a car with those lights i could see?

 

 

I'm sorry, but I'm not much help. I've had the lights in since 1989ish. I have no idea where to find them now.

 

Im gonna do the conversion. How does the wiring go together? Is it much of a change or is it plug up? If any one has instructions let me know please.

 

If you have the bulb sockets with a little wire, you just get male spade connectors and plug them into the stock wiring or you could solder and shrink wrap, etc. Really straight forward.

 

Kinda got mine on the back burner right now The lights are sitting around collecting dust lol. Someday though!

 

Whats involved in doing the conversion like that...Detail please.....

With wiring up the lights is there any special way it has to be wired.I know with the H4 bulb conversion you have to switch 2 wires also when i had my h4 bulb conversion the lights would not work after awhile with this conversion do you have the same problem.

 

these don't use h4's think but i think they word like the factory ones do, just a matter of wiring them in i believe
