Next project...

Need at least one (preferably both) headlight assemblies from 88-98 C10 Pickup or Tahoe. Need to see what fabrication might be necessary to mak these fit before I get a brand new set. I'm looking for the ones with the projector low beam.

Are you trying to do the one piece dual headlight setup? There's a guy on vancouverfbody with this mod, looks different.

That's the plan, looks like I may also need a header panel that I can hack up to make these fit/work. So far this is just an idea from some pictures I've seen. Not in a big rush to do this yet.

You don't like the offset lights? Or are you just trying to be unique?

Searching the junk parts section, and found that. Not sure if GMC ran the same headlights.

Those are the style I've had my eye on. Don't want to spend that kind of money until I know for sure I can integrate them into the header panel.

Did you check to see if he is willing to sell the lights sepperatly?

No, but they are all over e-Bay minus bulbs for $100 or less in the "buy-it-now" listings.

The adjustment screws are what concern me the most as they stik up quite far, I imagine they can be cut down. That's why I want just one junker first.

Thanks for the info, but this is still on the wish list and not high priority. I have other things at home that need financuial attention first. What I need to do first is find a header panel that I can hack up to make them fit.

Any progress?

None yet, haven't been out to look for anything I can use. Still need to see if I can pull a header panel at the airport wrecking yard next time I get out there. Was the only place I've been to that had some 3rd gens without alot of front end damage.
