not the angel eyes. They were pretty easy the only problem i ran into was since i bought them at a truck stop they were about a 1/4 inch too long in the back so i had to cut a 1/4 inch of lip off the back side were the light fits into. Other than that everything bolted right in and the lights plugged into the factory plug just dont buy the cheap made in china headlights made that mistake and ended up having to put back in the ones that came with the headlight.

They should fit. There were only three headlight styles ever made. Small 5.75" round (1970 Chevelle Style), Large 7" round (1973 Chevelle style), 5"x7" rectangle (1977 Monte style). I'm almost positive all rectangle headlights were the same size.

Billy-Ray, how much did the HID conversion improve nighttime lighting? I've been looking at HIDs for a while now, just wondering if the difference is significant.

I'm thinking these or maybe the ones with the colored dot in the center would look pretty cool:

I like the tri-bar lights. If you do any HID lights be sure to run the power through a relay and use the current wire there as the trigger. Youll burn your wiring up if ya dont. Ive seen it ALOT
