I know man, the 98-02 Trans Am's were way ahead of their time appearance-wise and the WS6's were menacing looking. Some people have thought that my 2000 Trans Am was a new modern car of today's era LOL.
@@TheReaperLSX thank GM marketing for that. I stumbled on the car by chance in 99 online and didn't even know what it was. The look persuaded my purchase back then.
@@TheReaperLSX yes i got interested on this cars by Knight Rider and it was my dream car but once i saw the 4th gen well... Let's say i had to have the latest model
Dude, I bought those headlights. They filled up with water after the first rainstorm/ tropical storm that hit here in Fl. I dried them out and realized the LED lightbulbs have vents in the back with the fan. When the lights are closed water flows between the gap between the headlight door and hood. Easy fix, glue a flat rubber flap under the headlight door.
Way to represent the company! I had to go through your entire script, just to find Late Model lighting mentioned one single solitary time! Hope you weren't wanting a sponsor!
Those new LED lights look sick!! definitely a huge difference compared to the stock ones and I can relate on how dim the stock headlights are and that outro was hilarious LOL.
If you turn your headlights on then unplug the top plug of the headlight module (next to fuse box under hood) then turn off the headlights, they will stay up. Second if you solder the new wires then when you replace the headlight motors (if you haven’t replaced the gear with a brass gear ⚙️) your doing all of that work over again. Besides that, I’m placing my order pdq. If you want a housings I have extras.
I was changing the sealed beams to regular bulbs in the 90’s when I was building S-10’s and Blazers. The halogens were so much better than the sealed back then. Would have been nice to have LED’s.
Looks awesome but how is the light projection? Bright doesn’t always mean seeing down there road. Also did you reinstall the black plastic piece around the lights? The whole one that used the Philips. Sadly on back order but I will be replacing mine! Thanks well done dude!!
For getting the headlights up, turn the lights on, and then pull the relay. I think relay. Maybe a fuse. It's in the engine compartment fuse block. It's been a while since I changed the lights on mine. And, when the motor breaks, get the metal gear kit from eBay. It's a common problem. I've done a few of them over the years. It's a lot better than just swapping the headlight motors.
You need to have a video of the light output at night . what does it look like from behind the wheel ? I would like to have seen more of the housings and the leds that went into the housing.
DiabloformulaRacing Great Video I think you did a great job installing those Late model lighting Head and Fog Lights are Jimmy's Trans Am and I think look way better
LEDs never go in halogen housings. The cut off is bad and you just end up blinding other drivers. A good halogen will be easier on on coming traffic and would end up being brighter. If you want LEDs do it right and get projectors.
Best mod you cam do..this makes the car look soo much cleaner. Plus they use so much less power witch I'm sure helps with the age of the wires..good job looks great..i also make my fogs light with the high beams..
Public Service Announcement: The LEDs shown here are not necessarily representative of what you will receive in the kit. You will Likely be required to modify your housings/brackets with an angle-grinder/dremel. It's a significant blow to an otherwise impressive product. The custom headlight housings themselves are a beautiful blend of stock aesthetics with modern functionality. Overall: 4/5 stars
grrrreat video!! dude is spot-on about TA factory headlights. my 02' TA headlights are so dim, it's funny... I'll have to check LML out. thanks for this video. #thumbsup.
I recently purchased these exact LED's from LateModel. The lights totally geeked out my WS6. My headlight motors continue run after turning off the headlights. The headlights flip up when I turn on my parking lights only. This LED light pkg has totally geeked my car out. I still not have found a fix yet...... :(
@@DiabloFormulaRacing good Monday evening my friend. I just came across your channel and subscribed. I'm building and restoring my 94 Pontiac Trans am from the ground up. I'm definitely going to be buying this led kit. thanks for your service. I'm a Navy veteran myself..,👍
The problem with LED lights in vehicles, are they can be triggers for people with Epilepsy. For this reason, I don't drive at night. Luckily, I live out in the middle of BFE in the desert of southeastern AZ, and don't live in a city. I live in a town of 400 people. The largest town with a Walmart is a 90 mile round trip. Lights look nice, light things up better, but is not good for those of us that have seizures.
I've been waiting for 4 months for high/low beams. If you wanna wait half a year it might be a good buy. If I would've known they lie about when they have them in stock I would've went elsewhere
does anybody know if those LED Fog Light Bulds will fit on a Formula Body ('98 4th gen) ...it has the "Base Model" font bumper & i know the layout of the lights are different, but im honestly not sure if the light fixtures are the same or not...? thanx
I need some expert help to find out if my 95 TA, meets law standards with my headlights and fog lights. I got pulled over due to "improper lighting" They said that I have too many forward facing lights. I was running my headlights with my yellow fog lights. I'm facing a pile of tickets. I have no aftermarket lights. Only flip up low beams, the white side marker lights, and the yellow fog lights at the bottom of the bumper. Please help. They are going to suspend my license if I can't prove the stop to be illegal. God bless. Thank you!!!! 😔
They told me I could only have 4 lights on the front of the car. Yet two of them are running lights, two headlights obviously, and two fog lights. I don't see how I'm in trouble over it being manufactured that way. I need to beat this case.
Would not recommend latemodel lighting i had there reverse led to try them out. The housing is metal but do not last. Lasted about 5 months and had to replace them.
Its a shame they had to stop making the trans am. I loved the aggressive body style it had.

@@TheReaperLSX yes i got interested on this cars by Knight Rider and it was my dream car but once i saw the 4th gen well... Let's say i had to have the latest model
There is a company in Florida, that bought the Trans Am name, and converts Camaros to TAs.
I’m so glad you did the side by side comparison like that. Pro thumbnail👌🏼🇺🇸

R.I.P. Jimmy and the trans-am will be missed
Car crash?
What happened to jimmy? First time watching this video. Already feel like jimmy is part of the family lol
favor my friend where you buy the conversion square.. headlights. .please let me know...
I just bought a ws6 manual with 29k miles on it. Gona do this mod. Great channel.
that car looks so good with the leds makes the car look new

Nice video just bought mine yesterday can't wait to get them
Did you do the hight beams and rear tail lights !? What about the interior lights?
I gotta get a set of these for my 93 trans am
Today I learned; auto mechanics suck at soldering. But great video! Lots of helpful info!
i have one of these. i Just want to remove the motorized assembly and get fixed mounted headlamps. but I cant seem to find anything like this
Love the WS9 hood on it. Probably purchasing one soon from Trufiber for my TA.
Very nice, those weren't available yet when I had mine in 99. I'll bookmark that link if I pick up another TA again.
That black trans-am it's a black beauty... 😎💯👍
If you need to replace the LED headlight bulbs supplied in this kit, where do you get them / part number / brand? Thank you.
Looks awesome but how is the light projection? Bright doesn’t always mean seeing down there road. Also did you reinstall the black plastic piece around the lights? The whole one that used the Philips.
Sadly on back order but I will be replacing mine!
Thanks well done dude!!
What's the rear wheel and tire size on the black trans am nice looking set up thanks bro.

Those LED headlights are sick and the outro was funny
Trans AM forever! I hope to make more videos on mine - I have a few on my channel.
RIP Jimmy 🙏
Is there somewhere you can get that little adapter piece for the headlights?
installing my fogs right now. I wish you'd gone over how to screw the brackets back without hitting the heat sinks.

Great video. I'm looking to add a Blind Side Alarm kit to my firebird next month.
Awe... first time seeing this video and it just popped up in my feed... so sry for you're lose man. Much love brother... 😥 ❤
Did u have trouble when closing the headlights in the light bulb in the back hitting the frame ??
Is that a factory WS6 hood or an aftermarket hood? I couldn't tell. It fits like the Trufiber hood I just got for my 2000 TA...
THAT LOOKS INSANE!!!
Best mod you cam do..this makes the car look soo much cleaner. Plus they use so much less power witch I'm sure helps with the age of the wires..good job looks great..i also make my fogs light with the high beams..
Anyone know what 9005/9006 led they come with? How close they come to hitting?
I know I’m late on this video but are the headlights the same size as the 93-97 lt1 cars?

This work on a 97 ws6 ta same wa? Got a link?
RIP, Jimmy. God bless your soul my brother.
If you pull the rubber off the back there is two screws that you can pull the bulb out and replace them with led thats what I did with mine
Do these fit on the 1995 formula firebird? I cant tell, I hope so... I need to find a decent brand to replace the dim factory ones.
I think that they are different but the company should have a kit for you. Probably back ordered like the 98-02
Wow thanks I’m ordering a set for my 99 trans am
Man I went to that website and $980 for new headlights for my 2008 Tahoe. Crazy!
Just picked up my first 1997 trans am lt1 was supposed to be a quick flip but idk now lol
Rip to your homie big bro sorry for you and childen loss.
grrrreat video!! dude is spot-on about TA factory headlights. my 02' TA headlights are so dim, it's funny... I'll have to check LML out. thanks for this video. #thumbsup.

Andy (Hopefully you see this and respond) but when is Westie's benefit car show at Rabers Tire? Someone told me, but I forgot the date.

Yes. They are the same 880 led bulbs regardless of firebird bumper or T/a bumper.
@@lsx.steven364 awesome! thank u!
How much is the whole set?
R.I.P. Jimmy. If it weren’t for you guys I wouldn’t have found these lights for my T/A.
Those would be that same headlights for an 89 - 91 Suburban too.
How much did they cost
Leds are beautiful on older cars like this

Nope
Resistors for LED turn signals
RIP JIMMY 😔
My 2011 Jeep was pretty bad till I did those
