Upgrades

Ok a few upgrade questions. My B2 is 1990 and I’m wanting to upgrade to larger side mirrors non western style. Anyone know of any that I can use? Also I’m looking at upgrading my headlights. I have considered doing a 84-88 B2 front end conversion so I do a round head light conversion, or converting to sealed beams. In the end I figured I would just find a upgraded lights. Is there a clear headlights for it? Headlights with projectors?

I found a great set of headlights on Amazon that mounted right into the stock bezels. They are rectangular sealed beam but with 18 CREE LEDs on each side. 8 LEDs come on in low beam and all 18 at high beam. They light up the road for a half mile!! I forget the brand but IIRC they were pretty easy to find. About $70 or $80 with shipping. They also come with only 15 LEDs. The 18 LED version is not technically DOT street legal on hi beam as they are too bright so those are what I got. The 15 LED lights are DOT legal. My county has no inspection so I went for the 18 LED version. Awesome lights and easy install. They are extremely bright. I hot glued the connectors because they weren't very tight but they work!! Had 'em 2 years now with no problems.

My 1990 don’t have sealed beam headlights. I thought about converting over to them.
