shoulda done more reasearch before u made a purchase like that. Look into eurolights. Think they're the ones with the sealed beam housing with the opened backs. Not sure if h4's will fit in them though.

i have the eurolights and no, they use h7's

if your lights are stock they use a sealed beam. i dont know who would have told you to get h4's. eurolights uses h7's. i think the cheap matrix racing lights use h4's thou...i dont know thou b/c all i know are stock and eurolights....

There has been some talk on here about conversion units that use a H4 bulb for the early 4th-gen Firebird and there are sometimes units on ebay. Also Rally Lights does make a conversion unit.

http://eurolamps.com/eurolamps/sealedbeams.htm
http://www.rallylights.com/hella/headlamps.asp

They are not cheap though.

The Euro Lamps units are $156+ plus shipping for a pair and I dont like the blue tinted bulbs. The Hella units (from Rally Lights) are $203 plus shipping for a pair.

The HID kit from www.ledgauges is only $47 more than the Hella housings. If Im going to spend ~$200 on a non-HID headlight upgrade, I'm getting projectors.

Why not just post a link instead of all the PMs?
Another headlight/brights question...
