No, they will not fit... you will need all the components in the CamaroHL kit, but you could get the H9 bulbs separate from us. Let me know if you decide to go with Eagle Eyes and will take care of you

They're similar in design, but the Eagle Eyes are third-party and much cheaper. Also, the Eagle Eyes use Halogen bulbs (unless you mod it with an HID kit). That's pretty much it.

Also eagle eyes use CCFL halos, the RS halos are LEDs. There's a lots of debates online as to which is better, but I can't find a clear answer as to which is better. Doesn't matter to me, but it does to some. And the eagle eyes halo diameter is smaller than the RS halo.

I have had no issue with lighting whatsoever. Driving in the night with a 6000K HID kit is pretty good cut off and never really switch to high beams. If you decide to get an HID kit with the eagle eyes, make sure your bulbs are H9 and you get an H13 relay harness to connect to your factory Camaro headlight harness. I used to have the halogen housing with AAC LED halos and HID kit and believe me, don't waste your money on doing all that. It just looks so cheesy and cheap. I'm glad I changed mine to the eagle eyes. Do a YouTube search for ERK5000 and you will see my videos I have of eagle eyes & my halogen with halos and HID's on it. You will definitely see a difference.

eagle eyes are sick, only thing i would like for those headlights would be to have the parking lamps only flash as a signal and not be on at all times. Is there a way to get that?

Halos are smaller than the stock ones. Big difference IMO.

Another difference is the turn signal lense is clear. Also, the halo's seem brighter then stock, you can barely see the stock halo's on during the day.

You would have to cut your parking light wire on both sides, then you could actually hook it to your halo's and have them as the parking light.

Yeah, I have the H13 bulbs in my BF Xenon kit. Can you just switch to an H9 bulb or is there some cutting or adapter needed? Thanks guys.

You should be able to switch. I was able to go from H13 - H9 using the AAC kit and I bet they are the same.

The plug from the back of the bulbs that connect up with the ballasts should be the same.

BTW: You should check with TheRetrofitSource for the bulbs as well. When I had to buy some bulbs to go from 8k to 6k they were like $80 from AAC. TRS sells Morimoto brand ones for $35. The Morimoto was a direct plug into my ballasts. You might take a pic of the plugs coming off the bulbs to send to them just to verify they'll match up.
