Unfortunately there isn't really a kit or a How-To on it that I've found so far.

The two conversions I've seen so far are Yellowstone's car and FieroKing's You might try searching for them as well as words like "Angel eye" and "hella"

Hope this helps!

When I saw this, I started my own Camaro headlamp swap using dual filament bulbs, it's a pita.

What it should look like when done

The ones in the first link are mine. I have it almost done, but have been stalled for a very long time. The tim ring is the biggest issue, other than that I have it figured out. I have done it a couple differant ways and it always does not look factory. Personally, I will not do it if it is foing to look tacky when done. My main issue is that I have had to rely on a couple differant people to get eash step done (cad, CNC plasma table, and the final product is going to be lazer or waterjet cut). Once you get away from a project it is tough to get back to it.

I converted mine to pop-up projector pairs. There aren't really any how-tos because the the whole process involves a lot of eyeballing, head-scratching, and fabrication. There isn't really a way to streamline the process into a guide since what you end up doing is pretty unique to the type of light you're putting in. The other option is find someone that takes the time to prefab a kit, and purchase it from him or her, but that route won't give you a unique look.
