Default Trans Am non-pop-up headlights?

Hey any of the guys in Houston or around the area know of a shop that can do a conversion from the stock front lights to something like the new corvette lights. I have had to many problems with the motors on the front lights and just wanted to get rid of them . So if there is anyone out there that can do this let me know!! Thanks guys.

At the moment, Breathless Performance is the only place that makes the NPU headlights for 98+ birds. They are about $1000 for the basic (non HID) kit and quality from what I've heard is next to crap.

Not many people have them cause Breathless' quality is poo. Their covers are made of crappy lexan or plexiglass that scratchs easilly and for $1000, i'd rather buy something that doesnt go to hell as soon as a bug hits it.

LT-7 but he's been long gone with no updates. I really wish someone would come out with the projector's like he was talkin about with the round projector's compared to Breathless's rectangles, but it seems like this topic should just be made into a sticky, since every week or so someone repeats the topic "?"

The concept Firehawk (altho it might have been the entire Poncho LS1 line) had NFU lights, and while they were a bit slim I think it looks better than the pop ups. If someone were to actually be able to produce these things for about $500-650 and have them be quality pieces that last, and work like stock lights they would rake it in.
