Default HID headlights

I know I've seen it somewhere, but my searching this forum hasn't turned up anything. Who makes the 70 A-body HID headlight kit? Anyone try it? Any opinions/mods that needed to be done?

We have a H4 kit almost ready. Already have a few in the field including the V8TV 496 Chevelle. HID kit is in the works. We are working with another company trying to make it work.

Any mods needed to the headlight housings? I'm going to strip and paint them shortly.

Mike, can you please PM me a price for this kit? I have a '67 El Camino and I am in desperate need of brighter head lights. The stock T3's just aren't cutting it. I am assuming this kit is the 5.75" kit with the low, high/low set up. Thanks.

I got my 5 3/4 H4 lenses from ebay for my 69 bird. Just had to roll the lip in a little on the retainer ring.

Kit will be $249. Trying to get custom boxing made so I can ship nicely as a kit.

Here's a link to the ebay listing and a picture of them installed in my firebird. The quality seems pretty good to me and the price is right. As for the relay kit just wire up a relay to feed the lights. This is how I wired mine.
