In this thread there is a discussion about this and a link to a thread on another board with instructions on converting a sealed beam bulb into a conversion unit to allow the installation of bulbs like the Camaro and most newer cars. Check it out, he shows how to disassemble the sealed beam bulb to allow the instalation of regular bulbs.
Silverstars anyone? Can't seem to find em anywhere.
The thread on the other board moved (again) and I don't have a link to the new thread.
Here is how I did it on my 2001 Formula:
(Slight variation on the above installation)

Unfortunately, they eventually had standing water in them and a loose connection caused the stock driver's side bulb connector to melt. The H7 bulb is intended to be sealed inside a housing. The back of the H7 bulb has cardboard and is not water tight. It would be a good idea to cover the whole back with a thin film of clear silicone (the copper stuff I used might be conductive). The downside is that it may make the pins to short to cut and plug into the stock harness so you'll have to splice in a new harness with spade connectors (before sealing the back of the bulb). The spades are thinner than the stock bulb's spades already and if you cut too much, you'll create a looser connection which will lead to a melted bulb connector.
