I saw the car on eBay. I personally don't like the look. It makes the car appear to have four fog/driving lights.
The Camaro headlights in the grill seem to be about the same size as the fog/driving lights. If I were going to use the Camaro headlights I would mount them in the place where the fog/driving lights are now located and leave the grill intact.

Well, they don't look that bad, but I doubt they will function terribly well as headlights from that low. I still think the answer, if one was hell-bent on doing away with flip up lights, is going to involve the mini headlights fitted to certain Cutlass Supremes [and Geos, I think]. The are narrower than the Camaro units in the picture. The Olds headlight mounting bracket would have to modified from staggered depth to flush, our current flip up cover would have to be cut back so the lights remained uncovered, and the covers would have to be welded and smoothed into the hoodline.

. I didn't see the actual modified headlights. I thought that the person had found some sort of way to upgrade the original mounted headlight with the Camero assembly....guess I didn't look far-deep enough at the pics....sorry
