Finished the radiator support swap and got a new old fender for the passenger side. Definitely need the radiator support and grille to bumper filler that came with the headlights you want. The bumper filler doesn’t have provisions to mount the parking lights because the bezel holds the parking light. Also I had to modify my headlight plugs as the prongs on the square headlights are shorter than originals and the plug wouldn’t hold onto the light.

I have that chrome piece that goes below the grill. Is that the one you need? Mines for sale. Haven't made time to list it on eBay or here yet

Kind of looks like an early 80's Ford truck/Bronco now

How do you delete a message if you start one and decide not to post it? I think the administrators should look into the capability of deleting a message after you post one. You can edit it but can't delete.

Well, if you don't post it there is nothing to delete. If you are talking about the box where you type the message before you post I think deleting browser history will do it.

After a message posted you can edit it to nothing if you want. Some templates require a least one character like a period at minimum. Think here it can be edited to be blank or at minimum a space bar.

Alternatively you could alway report your own post or message a moderator to delete it.
Cheers :happy160:

You still trying to put the square peg in the round hole...or is that a round peg in a square hole?:hmm:


Looks like the OP put a square peg in a round hole, it did not fit, so he changed it to a square hole.

Smart !! :D

It does look like the early 80s dodge/Ford. Even the guy at discount tire thought it was a dodge lol. The fenders and hood are the same for 73-80. Only difference is the core support. I have the original round eye core support but couldn’t find the correct metal headlight trim. It’s hard to see the shape of the headlights from the driver seat haha but the square lights seem 10x brighter
