No I dont. I bought them about a year before I even put them in and I put them in atleast 6 months ago. I just searched ebay for the HID conversion kits for whatever size headlights they are. One thing I learned is that the f bodies of the 80s are different sizes than the g body headlights.
I also had to cut out the back of my headlight buckets for them to fit. That's the only modification I had to make for them to fit.
You've been doing some really great work. I'd be concerned where you mounted some of the fuel system on the spare tire well. If someone rear ends you and slides under your bumper they could hit the filter.
Yea it's temporary for now. I was gonna cut out the spare tire well and replace it with a flat piece of sheet metal then mount the filter and pump on the cross member I made right behind the shocks. You can see the bar in the pic. But to get it going this will do. I also plan on either welding or at least bolting on another bar to tie the rear frame rails together and that would go between the filter and bumper support. I think with the car being lowered 2" I have a better chance of being run over than slid under lol!You've been doing some really great work.

Im not sure if I told you or not pontiacgp but you can see the f body sway bar I asked you about awhile ago. I believe you're the one that told me to heat it up with a torch and bend the ends in to use it. Fits like a charm!
I dont know how i havent seen this build thread. I like the whole look of the car it heavily modified but feels like its right. Do you have any pictures of the whole car, id like to save it on my phone.
