Re: head light conversion

I really hate to bring threads back from the dead.... But... Has anyone done this and have pics? The TRUCK lights, not the celebrity or beretta. How about some lights that are available today and new.

Anyone?

Ah, thanks! What was he doing in the appearance section? Should be fab, right? I shouldve expanded my search beyond just this board! Thanks!

Re: head light conversion

I wasnt crazy about those projectors, but the other one looked good. round just doesn't suit the shape of our cars. Thanks!

Re: head light conversion

yea same here..if you search on ebay tahoe or suburban headlights they make a bunch of different types maybe youll see something you like. i got the smoked ones non projector. they dont fit perfect they could be a little bigger but i think they are good enough

Yep! I agree! I saw a bunch of new smoked/clear with the diamond pattern reflector for a really good price. It's nice to find a brand new set of headlights for so little money! I dont think it's too noticable in the pics with the hood down and the difference in the brightness of the lights has got to be worth it!
