Front end conversion

[ryanb4614]

What is all that i need to buy for a 1997 recessed lights to change them to a composite lights?

[BlazerLT]

front grill, wiring harness

[ryanb4614]

wireing harness?,,, do i need a new bracket/ core support??? And do u have any idea where i could get "cutting glaze" i cant find it anywhere

[BlazerLT]

you will just need the new grill as I stated in my previous post.

Yes, you will need the composite wiring harness seeing it uses a different bulb setup than the sealed beam units.

i kno i needa a grill, is the wiring harness hard to do? The bracket support or core support do i deff need one of those?

[BlazerLT]

I can't really tell you how easy it is.

I have never done it.

He will need core support as well. The core supports aren't the same due to the headlight mounting brackets on the composite lights... HE needs the following

Grille
Core Support
Composite light housings with brackets
Filler panel (where grille meets core support)

We just did the conversion with Nater06 Sunday evening. He drove out from Ohio. Took us 3 hours...(front body mount bolts were corroded).

I can most certainly say the core supports are different for the headlights

[BlazerLT]

Fiberglass the front end solid?....

[ryanb4614]

never heard of that, i might just put in the clear corners, get euro front lights, then get white lights and a push bar/ grill cover.. a black one

Ryan, I was being facetious..... Just go to www.car-part.com to get your parts... Call Wagner's truck and van parts in Harmony Pa. They will have the lights, core supports and grille...(they're a wrecking yard, as of friday they had tons of them because they have so many s10's. blazers, etc... Call 411 for the number. The lights will run you about 75 a piece, the core support about a 100-125, the grille will be about 75-100, Optionally you can call New Castle Autowrecking in New Castle Pa., ask for Adam, it will run you about the same there.
