We are pleased to offer the most powerful and best performing lighting system for 98+ Firebirds EVER available on the market. We will continue to offer the V1 as a reduced pricing option for those interested.
What type of lighting is currently available for 98-02 Firebirds?
1) OEM Headlights – Horrendous light output compared to 99% of other new cars produced today.
2) Sealed beam headlight upgrade (Silverstar) – Marginally better than OEM with slightly better color however light output is still very poor.
3) Sealed Beam Conversion – Allows for more lamp options and typically used with coated halogen bulbs producing better but not ground breaking results. Light output sometimes can be worse depending upon the lamp chosen and the coating on the aftermarket lamp.
4) E-Code Conversion Housings – A costly conversion for “better” conversion housings but still lacking the focus and performance of a projector.
5) Sealed Beam Conversion w/ HID Kit – This has been the popular upgrade with the 98+ Firebirds and while it is a less costly option, the performance is still significantly behind a true projector headlight. Many systems will cause glare which is harmful to oncoming drivers. These systems also lack a bi-xenon option.
6) Fixed Headlight Conversion – Certainly the most expensive option ($1K+) with questionable performance, fitment and love it or hate it styling. The low beam uses a DOT approved non-projector housing which will not have the performance of a quality projector.
What’s different about V2 versus our original V1 kit?
- Our V1 kit included a low beam projector from Hella, whereas the new Morimoto projector is a bi-xenon unit. The bi-xenon function is controlled via a solenoid within the projector providing both low and high beam mode all within one unit. HID lamps do not like to be cycled on/off rapidly so with the V2 kit, the projector does all the work while the HID system stays on.
- The new projector provides better low beam performance than the V1 and astounding light output in the high beam mode. The low beam cutoff step for V2 is more traditional versus the more exaggerated step of the V1. Beam width is increased and more light is pushed farther out from the vehicle.
- V2 utilizes the existing headlight bucket allowing for an easy installation and adjustment.
- As with the V1, this kit remains plug and play with no permanent modification required to the vehicle.
For our existing customers
- You can upgrade to the new system while retaining much of your existing BLS kit saving installation time and money. Those with premium systems can still retain their high beam projectors.
- Existing customers will re-utilize their clear main protective lenses, HID ballasts and relay wiring. New HID lamps and some additional wiring will be included with the upgrade setup.
- You must have your original, unmolested factory headlight buckets and hardware including the high tension spring. We can provide stainless hardware to secure the bucket trim ring if needed.

Installation:
Installation instructions will be emailed for each kit upon shipment and if you can install a new headlamp in your car, this will not be much harder. Simple hand tools are the only requirement and will be outlined in the instruction manual so you have just what you need. Tolerances are very tight on these vehicles in the headlight area however these were designed to fit appropriately.
Adjustment:
Since the V2 uses the low beam factory bucket, adjustment will be the same as stock. For those purchasing the premium kit with the high beam projectors, adjustment requires a little extra work. The factory top and side adjustments are retained however we include a third adjustment point where the factory spring resides replaced with stainless steel hardware.

PM received and returned. The stock high beams will not be dormant but will remain functional with the V2 kit. When you click the highs, the solenoids in the projectors will provide the high beam mode and the factory halogen highs will come on just like stock.

This kit is amazing! I purchased it for my trans am during the last group purchase and have not regretted it yet! Install took a day with adjustment and beer run. Wiring was a little confusing but Brian at BLS helped out with just a phone call. Great customer service and great product! I have recommended the V2 kit to all my fbody buddies.

We are waiting on the arrival of the high beam projectors to fulfill premium kit orders. I should have these tomorrow or early next week but otherwise those orders are also just about ready to go out.
Right now we are getting the misc wiring pieces together to complete all of these orders.
Bottom line - We are on schedule
