I've seen people talk about it in other threads. The responses were basically that the dimensions of the sunfire lights aren't close enough to the opening on the firebird. There have been custom jobs where someone mounted small round bulbs that were recessed and had a plexiglass cover that was flush with the hood. I'm working on my own modification, but I'm not letting it out of the bag until it's complete

It would be quite a bit of work. I own a sunfire, wife's car, and have thought about it also.

Sunfire lights!!! That sounds like horrible idea. I hate those lights, one of the reasons I hate sunfires with a passion!!!!!!!! Im sure u can come up with some other ideas. Personally as far as fixed headlights go, I thought about it, but ther just isn't enough space without doing some cutting to get the style I wanted or need. I say 300Zx headlights best option or do what redraif did on hers if you like that slim headlight look.
