xenon headlights

[naptown]

I have a 97 3.8 and i was wondering if they made a conversion kit or somthing for my ride i cant find any lights for it

[gregmondro]

I've seen em before. I'll search around and see if I can find a link.

I bought mine at www.autooptiks.com
I paid around $70 for conversion kit and bulbs, but check out e-bay, I guess they have cheaper (Around $40 for conversion kit and bulbs, but it's auction.) clear headlamp which looks cool, and they say it's street legal.

You can use H4 bulbs for that conversion kit.

Ya, I'd say www.autooptiks.com is your best bet. Be careful though, they would never return my calls after sending me a bad set of fog lights. I got a headlight conversion kit also and it works fine.

DON'T ORDER A CONVERSION KIT!!!

There's no point. Trust me on this one. THe sealed beams that came with your car are nothing more than a 9006 size bulb "plastic welded" to the back of the glass enclosure. Take two pliers and grab hold of the back of the enclosure and the back of the bulb and twist in opposite directions. The bulb will twist right out. Just clean around the edge of the hole a bit with a file and glue a xenon bulb to the back of the hole. It's watertight and the only cost is the cost of the bulb. I've had mine for about 3 years now with no problem and no extra money spent.

He's right did mine the exact same way, except I used silicone and epoxy, you will save alot of money doing it this way.

[zlightning]

[Triple W]

Yeah sure I will I have been meaning to for about 3 weeks now but I am pretty lazy.

He's right, the only other thing is that the new bulbs won't connect to the stock connector. Not a biggie, but a quick run to the parts store will fix that.

What connector would I need to buy?

Just a few crimp-on terminals ("female disconnect" kind) and some electrical tape. The 6mm size worked ok for me, but I bet if there is 4-5mm it would work better.
