Default Silly Question...

Looking over all the HID threads and either I missed something or us LT1 owner can't drill out the bulbs in our headlights, right? My current headlights have the three prongs right on the back of the housing so there is nothing to drill out...

More than likely will just do the EuroLights setup.. but just wanted to check...

THanks...

The 93-97 T/A's (I believe years are correct) all used sealed bulbs (glass) so if you go drilling it out it's not gonna be pretty - the whole thing is the bulb. For our cars we need a new housing to go with HIDs.
