Headlight Help

My boyfriend just bought a gorgeous 2017 F250 XLT, and we are unsure about how to buy aftermarket grill and headlights. Do we really need a facelift kit?? Would any “2017 headlights” fit? What is the difference between overlay and insert and replacement grille and which should we look into?? We have no clue.

2017-2019 lights should fit, you shouldn't need any kits unless you are trying to use 20-22 headlights.

just buy upgraded halogen bulbs.

if you need better lighting for offroad/empty highways, add a pair of decent diode dynamics pod lights and run them on a separate switch


for the grille, you can find OEM takeoffs relatively cheap if you check the usual sites. i found a platinum one that was rattle canned, i bedlined it, and it looks pretty awesome IMO.
