I will post an image. I would love to have done mod myself but not that mechanical. One must know his limitations. I always screw things like that up and would have been an expensive mistake.

Now the big question is should I make an intake hole for my Ford AIS while the grill is off. Prior threads some for and some against or then again no noticeable difference.......Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

Thanks for the replies!

I want to get the 05 grill and head lights so bad!!!!! Does any modifications have to be done to the 05 head lights to make them fit????

I am currently in the process of buying a bed for my truck, and once I get it, supposedly this weekend, then I wanna paint the bed, and have a few spots on the truck cleaned up.

Then I will def. be buying the grill, and the headlights if they swap over easy enough.

By the way man I love the look of your truck, all those cab lights really set it off!

Yeah you have to do some cutting of the header panel behind the headlights but not to bad. The mounting holes are already there so that part is easy then all you need is the adapter harness to hook the headlights up. Thanks on the cab lights! That was one nerve racking day cutting all those holes in the roof.

Ya Troy I bet it was! I did em on my brothers truck, I made him drill the first hole, then after that I was over it lol. Still hard to physically sit there and put holes in your roof haha.

Thanks for the info on the head lights. I would def. have bought the head lights and the grille by now, I just don't know how much all the body work is going to cost me. Trying to save some buckaroos till then!

Thanks
Dennis

An '05 header panel will bolt right in and then the '05 headlights are a direct fit. No cutting involved.
