Default What headlights are these?

I pulled these off my '98 Z, and purchased a set of stockers and didn't pay much attention to these, the ones I bought came off a v6, was the halo thing a Z28 option?

However the person before me cut the wires to the halos, these lights were just **** and I'm getting a new set soon. I was just curious if it was a z28 thing or not?

What they all said. You can get them off eBay. Those head lights are kinda good because you can take them apart, take that black section on like what's in the pic you posted and you'll have factory looking lights other than having a little hole that's for the wires that lights up the Halo if you hook them up.

haha UnVMySS, not cool! I'm not good with lights, do you guys think that they are worth salvaging? There's no rubber around them left, are they worth anything?

If you have the factory style lights with the rubber piece, just take it off and transfer it to other lights. I think a lot a guys go that any way cause the rubber that comes on after market lights are junk any way and would last a couple months before needing to be trashed.

So would these be worth restoring? Are they a certain brand? How easy is it to change and such?

I would think so since you already have them and they don't look to be in that bad of shape, just needs a little TLC.

To swap them out is just a matter of taking out two bolts for the lights that hold them in with the L bracket.

For the rubber piece, it's only held on to the lights by some type glue and I'm sure you can go to a auto parts store and either find the same thing or something that would work just as good.

I don't know exactly where you can find replacements at since I've never looked but maybe someone will come in and can say. You may be able to find them through either Google by searching for them or there may be some on eBay.

Most places that sell LED's should have halos. Just make sure they are the same size.
