Question Sport Headlights to Non-Sport Conversion?

My Sport Headlight have that horrible yellow tint on them and I want to replace them with these > http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/94-01...spagenameZWDVW but they only have one bulb per lamp so what would I have to do to the wiring to get these to fit my truck?

TIA

Roan

Ive read that if you take the headlights out and heat them up the lens cover comes right off. Then you polish the inside and hot glue them back on.

There's a kit sold at Autozone I think it's called New Lite, it's around $19.95 and comes in a silver bag. If you follow the instructions carefully, and use the cleaner and polisher soultions properly with enough heavy and light sanding - it works very well. It sort of looked like my headlight had "melted" over the years, and this product removed this ugly yellow-melting problem. As a side benefit, (and more important, really) the light output increased about 30 - 40% just do to the newfound clearness of the lense.

I took a chance with this product, and I'm glad I did! IT does take about 45 minuites to do, and it's best to have a water hose handy. Also take a minuite to shoot a picture before and after of your headlights as well.
