tazman11683 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) these are for a full size gm truck they seem to be the same dimensions ?? any thoughts ? Edited October 25, 2012 by tazman11683 Quote
tazman11683 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 interesting... there is over 50 different aftermarket light designs for those trucks there is projectors halos and so many others Quote
RobertISaar Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 they might work when comparing the lenses, but the mounts will probably be an issue. Quote
virtuetovice Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 While I agree with Saar, I still think it'd be pretty interesting to find out a way to make these work in my Cutlass. I'm all for better headlights. Quote
tazman11683 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 they might work when comparing the lenses, but the mounts will probably be an issue. i was planning on removing the big mounting bracket its removable and attaching the ones from my olds Quote

I'm all for better headlights. i ordered a set of smoked ones like in the pic as soon as i get them i will be mounting them up and yes the stock headlights leave a lot to be desired the supremes would look a whole lot nicer with these Quote
Psych0matt Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 I kinda wonder if there's something similar to the size of the GP headlights, maybe remove the high/lows (leave the turn signals) and replace with one solid unit... Quote

Psych0matt Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 hmmm, might try it on the SE, and if it works perhaps I'll do the GTP... winter projects coming to mind Quote

Psych0matt Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 if/when I have some extra money I might try that. I'm gonna see if I can find someone with a stock set to get an idea of fitment Quote

Psych0matt Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 Do you by chance have measurements? If not I have a friend measuring some next week, hopefully with some pics. I like this idea Quote

I like this idea i will get u some measurements of them but i did sit one of my spare olds ones against one in a parking lot and there within a couple mm Quote
intern8tion9l Posted October 27, 2012 Report Posted October 27, 2012 I always thought about this when I had my cutlass. My concern was the curve of the face of them, but if it works out this would be badass Quote

My concern was the curve of the face of them, but if it works out this would be badass they are fairly close and the aftermarket set has a curve but this project will be a while out cuz i need a motor as of yesterday Quote

intern8tion9l Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 Not really worth it, they are cheap enough I think. It's just a 2.8; has 126k on it. Ran perfectly fine with no leaks, I took it out to install a tgp motor Quote
