Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

Car is a 3.8L 1996 Camaro. I know that the headlights/brights/fog lights are all sealed halogen bulbs. The ones I have and got the car with are really yellow. Are there sealed halogen lights that will fit on a 96 Camaro that are bright and have that nice blue/white tint to them? I bought some at pep boys but they didn't fit on the car... Anyone help?

You can purchase some Hyper White sealed Halogens for your Headlights and High beams. Your Fog lights and turn signals are not sealed (they use replaceable bulbs) You can also get some Clear turn signals from RK Sport like I have. That will give you a cleaner looking front end. I did this to my Girls Red 96 Z28 and it looks great .

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

Thanks for the reply. I am pretty sure my fog lights are also sealed.

This isn't a pic of my car, but it's the same front, and as you can see those are sealed.

Where is the cheapest place to buy the bulbs?

Thanks!!!!

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

What kind of headlights are on your black camaro??? Is there a product # or a name your could give me. Is it an actual aftermarket headlight or a stock one with a cover over it?? How much did it cost and where did you get it?
Thx, Mason.

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

I am still not seeing a replacement for this sealed lamp. The OEM part number is h4351. I have been googling forever to find one non OEM bright white bulb and can't find one. Can anyone link me!??!

your foglights are not sealed, i can't think of any foglights that are. you gotta get to the bulb from behind.

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

I am pretty sure Geno is right. I had to replace one of mine and you have to go behind and get to the bulb. hopfully you have a small arm because I had to have a guy at the parts store do it because I could not get my arm down that far...lol

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

Headlights and HIGH BEAMS are sealed, I just use autozone lights to replace them.

turn signals and foglights are not sealed...fog lights the bulb comes directly out the back of the housing

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

Ok, thanks for the info on the fog lights. So there are no sealed lights that have that bright white/blue look on them? ALl OEM lights I have seen are a really yellow tint.

Re: Replacing 96 Headlights/brights/fog lights

sylvania silverstars will give you the bright white/blue look, but they don't have them yet in that model, which is strange cuz they have sealed versions of silverstars for my 91 RS. I'm sure eventually they will tho. I need a set for my 94 cutlass which uses the same lights your camaro does.

They're stock 2000 headlights. They changed them on 98 to 02 Camaro's. I personally like the nose on the 93 to 97's better but they don't have the LS1 motor. You can get some Tinted covers for the 93 to 97's. My Girl has them on her's and they look way cool with the clear turn signals

They don't look stock, have you done any mods to them?? If you did how did you do it? I agree that the 93-97 front does look cool if the black covers are over them but I like the front of the 98-02 a whole lot better in its stock form. The grill is bigger and the headlight fit the car.
