I just did my 93 to 98 front-end conversion on my truck and my lights make it look tired and old.
I already googled all the different types of lenses and wanted to find a quality set that doesn't break the bank. I found a set with headlights, blinker lenses, and both uppers and lower corner lenses or $78 with free shipping on AM auto parts but, It sounds to good to be a quality product.

Is there a thread on this?

C'mon somebody? I know I'm new here.
I'll see if this site is on tapatalk so I can post pics, I get bored without pics to :D
I'm looking for pretty much stock replacements but with more clearer headlights and blinker and stock Amber corners.
Every where I look they only sell the upper corner lenses in Amber but no lowers.

Definitely looks better with the newer style grill. :thumbs:

Thanks , I also removed the chrome trim on the wheel wells

My next mods are all new lenses of course and the 98 style mirrors

I'll check out rockauto.

Check eBay. I replaced my factory heads for the Lightning heads and only spent like $85 shipped. That was year before last and they're as solid as factory ones far as I can tell. No condensation or leaks. There's several places that sell headlights on there, so I'm sure there's a deal to be had.

Like mentioned, check eBay and Rockauto. I bought some fogs on eBay a few years ago when I got tired of not having fogs on my truck. They are about 5 years old now and have since turned an ugly hazy yellowish color. So I'll need to replace them soon. I saw them on Rockauto for a decent price, so they will probably have some for your truck as well.

Also, make sure you get the GMC lights. My lil brother had that problem with his 90 GMC. He bought Chevy lights for it and they did not fit. I can't remember if it was the turns or the corner lenses, but some of the lights are Chevy and GMC specific. He eventually ended up switching out his entire front GMC clip for a 95-98 Chevy clip.

I've looking around everywhere and all of the aftermarket stuff looks low quality. I'm pretty sure I want to keep the full Amber corner lenses, so I'll have to order them separately if I get the 2nd or 3rd headlight kit.
Here's my choices,the stock looking one is from amautoparts and the rest are from xtralights

Is the brand lightning or the store?

All I keep getting is Ford lightning lights on that search.
