Headlights??

Anyone using the HID style lights? Thinking about a mod for the Dart, seen a few that I like, a few I didn't. Just wondering how they work, my electrical system is stock 1972.

Thanks for the link, good read. Would the Bee in my attachment have HID lights then? I think they call them halo lights. Probably not a daily driver anyway, but I don't mind that look. Is there any other style of light that would update the look of the Dart and still be functional?

Pretty simple rule regarding aftermarket lighting, specifically headlamps:

If it doesn't have a DOT/FMVSS or ECE (E-code) certification, it's probably crap.

OEM lamps go through a ridiculous amount of performance and durability testing before they are deemed safe (particularly for oncoming drivers) and reliable. The aftermarket typically bypasses this testing.

busboy,

I found and installed a set of 2012 Jeep Wrangler headlamps for my 1971 Dart GT. Removed the old headlamp and install the Wrangler unit. No mechanical modifications necessary. I used some "male" terminals to plug into the vehicle's existing headlamp connectors (it's all plug and play if I ever want to return to stock).
