I'm thinking of buying a pair of Norm's Flushmount Headlights but I've only seen a couple pictures of them installed. So if you guys will, can you post any & all pictures of Fieros with flushmounts. Also how hard would it be to instead of having the front turning signals in the pockets in the front bumper to have the yellow turn signal light(obviously not stock but smaller) next to or infront of something inside with the flushmount headlights??? Thanks guys.

Well it's not a pretty picture, but this is the only one I have. These are Tom's headlights, not Norms.

Well Norms the only place that I thought made them. How much was this Tom's guys?? Also do you guys think it would look dumb having the glass/lexan cover being tinted(my cars silver now) or just clear?

Hmmmm whos the person that sells the flushmounts with just the clear glass(norms has the black outline & i'm not fond of that) and the front of the headlights themselves are flush with the top of the actual headlight opening. Kris's look good, except they have like a 1 inch identention so to say, and I don't really like the look of that. Either way, you guys helped a lot. Plus's to all of you.

Does anyone have a close up the of some other kits? I just don't like that little lip thing, look at the picture that Cali Kid posted, and you can see what i mean. To bad Kris didn't have em "indented" in more like the others or else I would buy his.

Kris's setup looks first rate to me. I've done the home mades with driving lights. Here is the thread with pics and template. https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/043339.html

You can see the space limitation in the pics for recessing.

The regular Geo Storm or Camaro headlights are deeper. This means there is a clearance issue with the firewall if you want to recess them.

Norm also has nice stuff. Either kit looks good depending on your pocket book and what you want.

Either way, their designs are there because of the limits of the space in front of the forward firewall.

Good luck with your choices.

Arn

Well which kit is the one with the lights flushmount? Is it Norm or someone else besides Kris?? Like for instance in the first picture in this thread, you can see how the front of the lights are alligned with the hood and not giving that "lip" or lazy eye look. I just wanna get the kit that doesn't have that lazy eye look, no offense to anyone who has it, I just don't like the look and what it to be nice & flush.

there's not enough room for real headlights without the "gap". the lights are about 4" deep and the edge of the light opening is about 3" from the bulkhead. some ive seen put some flat black paint over the gap to conceal it. foglamps are shorter.
how do i know this?

Maybe I should load my pictures I have on my pc of flushmounts, but they all look pretty flush against the top of the wall..............I mean there not zoomed in, but thats how they appear? Norm has a zoomed up on his on his website, but with the black outline I can't tell if its the same way & just covering it......if so I could just do the same thing as Norm's covers & just have the black outline the same color as the car?

That's the pictures I've been wanting Norm, was a head on of the covers on. I think it will go good with my silver & black trim scheme(moldings are black, rims are black, & goign to insert black mesh in the "mouth" soon) So how much for flushmount kit?? For some reason I can't go to your website cuz I'm thinking i'm having spyware issues cuz it keeps re-directing me to some spyware site you know the whole deal with that so yeah.
