Default Trans Am Headlights

Ok guys, mine are starting to get a little bit worn out and Im thinking about gettin new lights all the way around. I dont really want the HID molded headlights that people have been doing to their T/A's. Are there any companys out there that make a decent bright light that will replace the stock? Thanks for the help guys!

Last I checked you could only get Sylvania Silverstar housings for '93-'97 'birds. Have they come out with an LS1-era housing?

I bought Eurolights housings and silconed Sylvania Silverstar bulbs into them.

Its the ones where the mold the plastic around a different "round style" light so they dont have to buy the lense anymore and just buy bulbs. I dont want to do all that. I would love to have the HID kit and leaves it alone but I dont have an extra 300 on me.

I believe Sylvania makes standard halogen lights for the T/A but not Silverstars.
