headlight swap

I've got an '87 F-150 and really do not like the headlights. In '92 Ford changed the style of the headlight/side marker set up, which I like much better. Does anyone know how hard it would be, if possible, to modify my '87 to accept the '92 style headlights/side marker?

All I can say is front clip conversion. This means, hood, fenders, grille, light housings, all lights and bumper. I have seen this done a few times.

The fenders will accualy work from the 87.

The core support would also have to be changed if I remember correctly.
