Those look alright, but I'd still go with the ones shown here http://www.rallylights.com/hella/165mm_lo.asp . The freeform ones are just money. I also went with the 100/80 Hella premium bulbs. I'll snap some pics when I get them aligned.

Hey Blackbird how was installation with the rallylights set? I pretty much mean the wiring. They have a set of instructions for blazers and s-10s, which I thought had pretty similar lights to Trans Ams. Did your set come pretty well explained? Thanks bro.

They came well explained, but dont follow the GM instructions. Just the ones that come with the product. I'd be happy to help you out when you get them and explain what may be tricky. I'll try and keep it simple here, but your factory plug has one socket that is slanted. Now all you gotta do with the adapter is pull out the brown male end and stick it in the slanted female factory plug (done with a paperclip). The rest of the the adapter plugs right in. Once you will see it you'll understand.
The only tricky part was putting the adapter in a spot where when the light closes it doesnt hit. I used the small opening where the headlight wiring comes through and crammed it in there as best as I could and secured it with a ziptie. Havent had a problem yet. If you need any other help, let me know. PM me. Good luck.

I like those headlights I was going to do the headlight thing, but now I have bigger better plans.
I am going to do a 98+ WS6 Ram Air conversion on my 1996 Trans Am.
I need both fenders, headlight assembly right and left, front bumper, front bumper absorber, and a ram air hood.
So if anyone knows somebody that`s parting out a 98-02 Firebird or Trans Am, hook me up. I will be getting rid of my 1996 Trans Am parts as well.
