Re: 69-80 suburban hids???

I don`t know why not.There was a time when a headlight was a headlight.You either had two 7" headlights or four 5".They were totally interchangeable between cars/trucks/motorcycles/even aircraft as well as American/foreign.

Re: 69-80 suburban hids???

They will definately just slap right in there.That`s what I was saying.There`s nothing fancy about it,just a 7" headlamp.

Re: 69-80 suburban hids???

Well,posting the same thing in different message boards is called double posting and it`s against the rules you clicked "agree" to.It`s my job to do something about it.Nothing personal.
If you want to ask in every message board for vehicles that use 7" headlamps you left out the 47-59,60-66,69-72 Blazers,73-79 pickups,73-79 Blazers & Suburbans.A 7" headlight is a 7" headlight.

Re: 69-80 suburban hids???

They'll fit, but I am curious and skeptical as to what they are and how well they actually work -- at only $80/pair -- you usually get what you pay for. The ad says HID conversion, but just what does that mean? It also says H4, which is a standard dual-filament halogen bulb. True HID lighting uses an arc, not a bulb. Oh well, if you get 'em, post up what you think of 'em.
