What mods do I have to do to put the sport head lights in my 95.I know I will have to get the harness,but are the lights just a bolt in??? I do want to have better lights.I hate to drive at night because of the poor lights. Thanks Don T

I may be worng but if your truck yr is pre-sport model years you will have to cut out the light buckets a bit to get the larger housing in there. From what I have read it is no big deal and a quick easy job with a sawzall. I am sure a search on here would produce a thread detailing the surgery.

I built my own harness and wired it in such a fashion that a 4 pin relay would make the headlights function just like stock; and with a 5 pin relay they would light all 4 bulbs when low beams are on. It worked great and I had excellent light output - until I hit heavy fog! The inner reflector with the low beam filament lit directs the light up in front of the truck, at a steeper angle then the regular highs nonetheless!
If you want all 4 bulbs lit on lowbeam, just make sure you can reverse it easily if you run into a similar problem.

Yes you will have to do some cutting. The hole will have to be elongated about 5 more inches toward the radiator.

Here is one thread with pictures on the cutouts for the light buckets. I have also seen pictures though I couldnt find it quickly where they just made the original hole oblong. I dont own that year truck so cant comment on whether there is some sort of brace that runs through there that you wouldnt want to cut out or not. go down to post 14 for pics
