Yeah, for $40 more you can get a decent HID conversion kit. Don't waste your money on Silverstars as you won't really notice a big difference between Silverstars and regular Sylvania halogen bulbs.

Headlight choices are up to you. You can go with new reproduction factory headlamps from 50resto.com , and they're pretty cheap. Or if you want clear/diamond headlamps, check out ebay. I got my diamond/ultra clear headlamps from a seller on eBay... The quality was real good with no fogging issues, and i paid about $75 shipped to my door.

The factory GT fog lights suck on our cars. Even with brighter bulbs, you won't really notice a big difference. I had Luminics Ultra White bulbs in my fogs, and they didn't make a noticeable difference over the stock halogen foglight bulbs. So i ended up getting a HID kit for the fogs too.... big difference.

Overall, check out 50resto.com for new stock replacement headlight/foglight assemblies.

Check out ebay for the best deal on Cobra style/ultra clear lamps.

Are yours yellowed/faded? Just get some replacements and you should be good.

choose bulb 9007 for the headlights, if you dont need high beams to pass inspection just get the single beam kit.
