I seen a '91 or maybe a '92 with the newer headlights a few days ago. I didn't realize what he'd done. I knew there was something different but it didn't click until I read this.

JMH1950- 91 is Way diffrent then a 92...

Sqela- Nope, i like my Corner Lights. i don't like the HUGE amber on the 96-99'*



Im going to show what to do next, the outer support. Its needed if you want to stop the HL flutter
But ones thats done. its going to be Great

On my way home last night form the villa, They really do seem to put out more light. I like the beam pattern better. Covers more of the road where it matters.
i'll finish the mod tonight and get more pics up. also ill show what some people may not like about the mod.

*Update*

So i went an adjusted the lights tonight to make then light up the road right...
Then the hood wouldn't close

So a little more tweaking and it'll be all set though

but hey it works, if your like 1 of the 20+ million people that dont adjust there headlights then you'll be fine

Its just hitting by like 1/8" or less. i may also get a 96-99 grille and see how it fits on the bumper :? or ill just mod mine a little.

That'* awesome. I've wanted to do a fender/bumper/headlight swap for a while, but now it seems that I don't need to do this any more. Way to go! You're my hero.

Are those pictures and write-up on the headlight swap still around? Where could I find them?
