Headlight Conversion

[CAJUN C4]

I have the Autopal Headlight Conversion from Mid-America.
see C4 Corvette Headlamp Conversion 1984-1996 - Mid America Motorworks

They are light weight and use replaceble H4 Bulbs.

Anyone have these? I have an issue with them throwing light to the outside of the Roadway. Seems a little weak? My lights could need adjusting maybe?

I have them...sorta...I bought mine at I think Autozone 3 years ago at half the price..no more than $35 anyway. I've found them to be MUCH better than stock especially driving on back roads. My lenses are slightly clearer however...so maybe thats the difference?
When adjusting I usually use my garage door. I rememember it was a real PIA finding the info to properly adjust headlights when I replaced my headlights with the 88 design 10 years ago. There was only ONE forum and it was even pre google. I think i was still using a first generation toshiba satellite on UGGG....AOL at the time. How did we EVER live without the internet and high speed connections?
Googling- this link seems pretty good Aiming Headlights - Adjust Headlight Aim to Maximize Visibility

Thanx for the Info..This will help.
Do you have the 65w55 bulbs or 100w90's?

I would recommend to buy a good set of bulbs from a well-known brand. There is a difference and normally you get what you pay for (at least here in Sweden). I had cheap H4 bulbs in a 87 Vette and it was a BIG improvement when I bought better ones (Osram Silverstar 60/55W).

The 100/90W bulbs make the glass hotter and with some bad luck you might get a cracked glass, especially if you get some splash on them in rain... My experience with 100/90 (not in a Vette) is also that they dont last very long.
