i wonder if someone could adapt a set of popup headlights from a sunbird gt to a cutlass with little mods..i think that would look sharp on a cutlass. a nice aggresive look :twisted:

I've contemplated *thats about it* adapting toronado hidin lights *the kind that flip around* to my 87 Cutlass Salon. Be different. just take the mechanism from the toronado, adapt it to my cutlass, then modify the face of it to flow with the front.

i should do a little research. and measure the height, width, length, wire harness..all that jazz. and i would probably have to move my battery since it is pretty snug against the left front headlight. cause the flip mechanism is probably deeper then my headlights are.

Just so you know they aren't exactly flip up headlights, but flip up headlight covers. The headlights themsleves never move.
