Default Does anybody make fixed headlights for a Trans Am?

Is there any aftermarket manufacturer that makes a fixed headlight kit for a T/A? I've seen some in the past but they were limited.

I think it was 98 when Firehawks had fixed lights. They looked pretty good to me.

They never went into production with fixed headlights, that was a prototype

Thanks for clearifying that. I thought it was a factory option.

All of the aftermarket fixed lights I have seen look odd. I like the prototype ones from the Firehawks because they are smaller than the aftermarket ones and seem to fit better.
