You have to do a conversion by replacing the current headlights lamps. Try this following write up from a member here in LS1 tech

Either you have to drill out your stock housings and glue in an hid bulb, which has shitty output (i tried that first) or you have to buy euro housings and then put Hids in those, which is what I did after realizing that option one sucked. cost less than 100 bucks, and no I can see at light. its all plug and play.

Check out the Lighting FAQ.

There are basically 2 paths with branching options:
1.) (BAD) Halogen Reflector Housings with a HID kit
2.) (GOOD) Projectors with an HID kit.
There is more details and information about both in the Lighting FAQ.
There is also a sponsor that sells a Projector Kit, or you can assemble your own.
