Default 89 c1500 headlamp conversion

Hello, I`m not sure if this has been posted (unable to find a thread on it). I have a `89 c1500 with the 4 sealed beam headlights and I would like to put in the composite style . If I were to order a set of composite head light assemblies would I need to do any modifacations or build any mounting brackets or will they bolt in? Thank you in advance for the help

You do not even have to snip. The new ones come with a H10 halogen bulb and you just connect your factory harness to the back of the bulb and your finished
