The package had the little D.O.T. stamp on the back and then they had packs of bulbs clearly marked "For off highway use only"... so, you're guess is as good as mine..That wattage street legal though?

Shouldn't matter as long as it has the 7" bulbs.Has anybody converted a MUTT?
I just ordered from Amazon this week, haven't received yet.They appear to be no longer available, I just searched and looked on his site it didn't come up.

IPCW CWC-7006 7" Plain Round Conversion Headlight $14.39 ea.
HELLA HLA-H83140041 H4 24V 100/90W Halogen Bulb $7.22 ea.
Dorman 84790 Headlight Socket $8.91 ea.
If the 100/90's are too bright I'll just reduce the wattage as they're quite inexpensive.
Looking at the Dorman 84790 Headlight Socket, I would say the answer to this is "No". I'd wager he just added the Packard connectors on the end of the wires (which is really easy to do, but obviously you need to own the said connectors)Did that order include the 3 prong to Packard connector?
I found an easy alternative to Packard connectors for this conversion. I had an assortment of insulated butt connectors. I stripped the insulation off of some blue ones. The connector was the same diameter as a Packard. Crimp the wire in one end and insert the other in the female connector in the headlamp bucket. I had some boots around that worked as well for weatherproofing.Looking at the Dorman 84790 Headlight Socket, I would say the answer to this is "No".
