Headlight units for Gen 4 Camaro

[Stephen CA]

The headlight units for the Camaro were "modified" by the previous owner to take non-standard bulbs. We had to cobble together one last year after the bulb went, but having had to replace a second one last weekend with a glue gun and silicone sealant it's definitely time to get new units. Does anyone over here sell them or is it a case of getting them imported? Does anyone have any they want to sell?

There are lots of aftermarket solutions offering significantly more light output Even with legal bulbs.
They usually come with neutral pattern so easy to setup for the UK and again legal.

a few suggestions for you:

Blackbird Lighting Solutions

Camaro and Firebird Headlight Conversion Kits

eurolamps.com

Or stock replacements including part numbers. I think both advance and autozone have online ordering and international shipping.
new stock H4351/H4352 sealed beams from Advance or Autozone.

Did you get hold of a headlamp?

I have 9 spare for the T/A, shame they don't fit yours, I think mine are the same width, but slightly taller. The reason I have soo many, is a long long time ago I needed one for the T/A, Bauer Millet wanted £80 for one. I thought this was a bit high, so went on ebay searching for the H4703, someone was selling a box of new ones for $60 in the US, there was 12 in the box. Even after shipping it was still cheaper than one from Bauer Millet. 10+ years later I'm still using them. lol. At least they are not left/right handed, a flat beam so can use on either side.

Thanks for that. I've looked into the various Xenon conversion kits and other stuff people have kindly posted on here. As I don't use the Camaro everyday I've decided to get just four standard replacement units from RockAuto (hence my post the other day) which, as far as I can tell, work out at around £15 each (excl. postage / Fed-Ex). The lights work well enough at the moment for any daytime running or short distance journeys in the dark so once the Xmas postal rush has dies down I'll get them ordered and fitted in time for next years shows. I also need to upgrade the lights in the Beetle as well which are easier to source. If I do decide to buy a T/A and need some head light units I know where to go though!

Make sure you buy a 98 or later then. The earlier 4th gens had different lights.
