I don't want to sound like an asshat but whats with all the work to go from one garbage headlight to another? Bosch 4x6 H4 conversion lenses will be a far superior light, bulbs are cheaper and alot easier to come by. I personally have the large rectangular lenses in a couple of my vehicles(and the 4x6 oneson a 2002 cavalier)with 90W/130W bulbs and have had no problems with cops or blinding people on low beam(really nice beam cutoff) and on high beam you get a really wide spread much like you would with the celebrity lights, but the distance is that of a spot light. So why bother wasting time converting to somthing like that when you can buy the kit, swap itin in the time it takes to changea stock headlight and have somthing better? As long as you protect the lenses they will last forever and all you pay is like $4 per bulb after that.

Well congrats! You did what you did not want to do. You made yourself out to be an asshat.

But you just did sound like an asshat. I'm not doing this conversion for the extra light, I'm doing it because I like it and its something different. The BONUS for doing this conversion IS extra light, but I could care less. I've lived with horrid sealed beams for 8.5 years and I could live with them for another 8.5 if I wanted to.

i agree with the asshat guy

if i seen that on the street i would think you broke the original lights and just rigged up whatever you had lying around.

+1 for doing something different
-2 for the results
imo
