Default Better headlights

i own a lt1 camaro and i am getting tired of my lights because they are too dim and are getting moisture in them. i am looking for a replacement set for the fogs,brights, and regular lights. I think all of them are sealed beam so an entire new light is the only way. If any one of you have new lights or know where to get them, please tell me. and i am not interested in OEM replacement lights

Check out the headlight setup on this page:

http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/94Z/piaa.htm

Something to note about this article is that since it was written, the lights that were used in that conversion have since been discontinued. You might get lucky and find somebody who still has a set that never sold, but if not, you may also want to search for the PIAA 1000-X model, which is very similar to the lights used in the article. (I have them, the only difference is that the lamp housing is black instead of silver, and the mounting bracket is different. They're still dichroic though.) Hope that helps.

I'll be honest I never was a fan of those circular headlight conversions. I think I've seen a hyperwhite for our cars but I cant remember where.
