while not pitctured, we recently installed glass, lighting and other odds and ends to make it leagel to drive (ongoing project), however the stock front halogen healights are extreamly dim, even for a car this age. question, has anyone here or in the classic car world, retrofitted modern HID headlights to work on muscle cars or mopars in general? if so, how has it been done the simplest way?

p.s, new sealed beam lights, relays, fuses.

are you sure they are HALOGEN? they use to light up pretty much good and for me, the right halogens lights up way better than some HIDs around

Quality halogens and with relays are the way to go.

HID if you want to spend big bucks, but the resulting photometrics are questionable at best.
