Headlights for LT1 model?

Does anyone know of any headlights for the LT1 model that look good and where I could find some? I've been looking everywhere and can't seem to find any at all.

Stock look just fine, IMO. I run silverstars in mine. Bit brighter/whiter.

+2 vote for silverstars. I even modified my fog lights to accept silverstar headlights for double trouble.

ebay is your best bet for price. I picked up a set for $13 new. Search Silverstar 9006 for low beams and 9005 for high beams. You may have to brake the plastic coupling off the back of the light and twist the light out. You'll have to pull rather hard to break them loose You'll need a tube of black silicone to put around the base of the new light bulbs to hold them in and keep mosture out. You can also buy them at Oriellys but they are more expensive. The Ultra's are the brightest.

Silverstar also sells the original sealed beam style that you can get that helps a little without modding the lights to fit projector style as he suggests above. It's upto you.

6litereater or somebody needs to just start manufacturing some stock housings you can change bulbs in. I hate having to do Do-It-Yourself work like this, but it gets more and more tempting everytime I have to change one of the headlamps.

I don't believe these will fit an LT1 car.

it's incredibly easy to do. Hardest part is getting the old bulbs out. I've done two sets.

These are for the LTI Trans Am - Dual filament. Prob need a different one for the camaro. Didn't see that before.

I have the T/A so that is what I have used.
