Default Options for modernizing headlights

I can't remember the last time I replaced the headlights in this thing so I want to have a plan for when the time comes. So far I've found Blackbird Lighting Solutions. Is there anyone else out there offering a similar kit? Doesn't have to be HID.

well it all depends on WHAT CAR YOU HAVE, unless I'm mistaken and they offer another housing the LMC lenses are for 98+ Firebird / Trans Am's only so if you have the 94 T/A in your signature then BLS is your choice.

I do have the 93-97 body style so it looks like the LMC truck housings won't work. I also surfed around the lighting faq and for a plug and play kit, it looks like Blackbird is the only game in town. Also, lots of dead links in that faq and links to threads with missing pictures and more dead links. Still plenty of good info especially for someone who wants to do custom work themselves.

Just google "H4666 headlight conversion" and you'll get pages of options in a similar style as the LMC option for the later models. You just may have to do some additional research to figure out which ones are quality.
