Non-Popup headlight conversion

Has anyone used these or know if they are good quality? Also, Octane is only the seller, does anyone know who actually makes these?

Thanks,
Zach

I saw them on a car here, didn't get to look at it too well, but it didn't look like they fit very well. They were hardly flush at all.

Re: Non-Popup headlight conversion

pop up headlights are a signature feature to the firebird and corvette... to me.

I don't really like the new corvette style headlight and wouldn't know why someone would like their firebird to not have pop up headlights.
