I want to put old-type headlights in a 97 Ranger. I know, that might sound crazy here but I had Hella E-code cases in my last car, a 90 VW Fox and liked them. I used Sylvania xtra vision bulbs, 55/60w and fed them using a Painless 30815 harness with relays built right into it and I got good light and more of it, and what I thought was a better light distribution than with stock DOT light pattern. Anyway, I wonder if anyone in this group has experience doing something like this, what baskets should I look for at the junkyard, where will I have to drill holes, how can I put something in for trim so it won't look crude when done, etc. I suppose the other way is to get all new HID but I don't think I want to spend that much. I think I can do what I have in mind for less than US$200. Any ideas?
