What is the beat headlight upgrade for camaros?

I did a search and found a few options...

One is the hella FF75 headlights and the other is using 9005 and 9006 on the stock housings...

I would like to know what is the best alternative in a considerable price range...

Seen a few pics and I like the hella... just want to know your oppinion.

At this time, this will be your best as well as most cost effective upgrade.

Those are Hellas Is it the price you are commenting on or? At just over $100/pair, that is a steal compared to other lights. One set of piaa's will run nearly $200 or more. All you will gain doing the 9005/9006 conversion in the stock assemblies is the ability to replace yur lights for less money.

Hella 90mm + HID, is by FAR the best available option, followed by Hella FF75 + HID.

Personally, I like the 9005 and 9006 bulbs in the stock housings. I don't really like changing the actual lights on our cars, and the upgraded bulbs are a huge difference. The stock yellow looking bulbs are terrible, and those 9005 and 9006's really help out a lot.

The good thing about both Hella kits, is that you can upgrade the bulbs first and see if thats good enough for you. I am running 100w bulbs right now, which works great, but I am still going to upgrade to 90mm Hella + HID.

And yes HID will always be best.

No way I would pay that much for lighting. $40 plus shipping will get you better lighting in the stock housings.
