Default Headlamps...

I am assuming the later models use electrics to raise and lower the headlamps ... question ... is there a kit to convert a 76 to electrics or has someone done it using later model stuff ...

Yeah, there is a kit that uses mid 90's firebird motors. Not sure where to get it though.

The kit is less than $1OO. and for the rest it depends on where you purchase them from. Talk to Chris and he can fill you in on what is out there.

You are very welcome.
