Post N33d Advice!!

So I have 1999 Chevy Tahoe that has the older style square light assemble & I want to swamp it out and put the newer style lights on it. Now my question is would it be easy? Do I have to rewire the wires for all the lighting?

The sizes and shapes of the housings and mounting are so much different from each other, that it would be quite a chore to even get the housings mounted successfully. Wiring the bulbs would be the simplest part of the job, they both use 9006 lowbeams, and 9005 highbeams.

X2 really nothing to wire at all but making the headlamps fit correctly would be the hardest most time consuming part. Anything is possible tho. Good luck man should look pretty crazy when your done with it lol.

Be sure to come back here & post up some pics if you pull this thing off. I'm having a hard time trying to imagine the final outcome.
