If you need the housings for your LT1, I have my set that was on my car for like 2 months before I crashed my car. I don't need them and they don't fit on my new '98 T/A (obviously)
PM me and let me know if you want them.

As I said earlier, got in both kits but only tried putting in the low beams today. What a a nightmare this project has been. The install is fairly easy like everyone says, but I've had problems with that eBay seller. First off, he only sent me the low beam kit at first. So i had to email him and get him to send me the fog lights. OK got them in. Great right? No.
I got the euro housings in so I decide to put the low beams in first. Turns out one of the ballasts is faulty. Ugh. So after wasting a bunch of time troubleshooting the ballast, I have one HID installed and nothing else. I would have had time to do everything else this afternoon otherwise. They now are sending me a replacement ballast..
Oh well.
My advice, buy the HID's somewhere else. Maybe these guys were good once upon a time, but not anymore..

Well I got in 3 of four lights. Still waiting on the replacement low beam ballast. Install is fairly simple, but you need a little brains to do it.
Here are some pics. 6000k. At least with one regular halogen, I have a comparison picture for all of you.

Is it just me or are your side markers blue?

Not sure on the part number, but here's where I got them:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1998-...item45eec2ae09
They are very high quality and I'm really happy with them.

The kit comes with some 194 mini wedge bulbs in red and amber. I threw them away. So if you want lights looking similar to my car, then don't use those. I bought some 194 mini wedge white LEDs from advance auto parts. You'll be able to find them anywhere including superbrightleds.com
Real simple to swap out the lenses and the bulbs. With a torx or Allen key you can change all 4 in 10 minutes.
