You can get halogen lights to replace the square sealed beams or just get Silverstar sealed beams.
My brother put the Silverstars on his old truck and they were alot brighter.

Welcome to Stangnet. I've got an 84 GT convertable, I'd like to get a nice set of TRX wheels if you've got any for sale.

The TRX wheels are metric and have 3 spokes with a slit down the center of each spoke.

I've got a set of MOMO Stars on it, I just wanted some TRX's to put on it for shows. TheTireRack sells tires for the metric wheels, but I don't plan to drive with them.

I would stay away from underdrives. They will make your car run hotter and it will be a lot harder on the alternator, unless you want to leave the regular pulley on the alternator. The best bang for the buck will be an x-pipe. Then go for a shifter. But its your car and you do what you want. My .02
