From: out of my mind; be back in 5 minutes....
Car: 1989 Firebird Formula
Engine: Internal Combustion
Transmission: Completed
Axle/Gears: ones that turn.
It will work, as long as you wire in a second connector for the inboard high beams.
An easier way to go would be to get the complete underhood headlight wiring harness from a Camaro and swap in; they unbolt at the firewall next to the brake booster.

OK.......I've been as good as I can be....
...I've got to ask.
WHY would you be putting a Camaro front end on a Firebird?
My curiosity is killing me!

Im puttin the camaro front end on because, i crashed the firebird up, and having an extra camaro around for parts(Bought it for the engine) just seemed to be the answer, plus i just got this urge to see how it works. And i did get a new set of fenders(dented them up too)

The 'bird headlamp plug will work on the outer camaro lamp (low beams). You just have to tie/splice another harness plug into the green wire for the inner high beam lamp that the camaro's have. Take the camaro high beam lamp and plug w/wires, splice green into green and ground the black.
