Need some advice!

can someone give me a website where i can find a 05-06 front grille and headlight conversion for a 99-04 ford super duty? i like the new grills and headlights and have seen a few examples of it but i can't find any sites on the internet. do you think this would be a hard swap? and advice we would be great...thanks

Do a search on eBay. They have a grill kit that is a bolt on. The lights...not certain, but think eBay has you covered on that too.

Welcome to FTE nottus23

I did my headlight swap a couple weeks ago and took pictures which will hopefully be posted here soon in a how-to article.

Yes it's pretty easy it's not a straight bolt-in. You have to do some cutting of the header panel behind the lights.

If you mean the '08 "newer", then NOT certain. However, if you are talking about the mirrors off the '03-'07, then YES it can be done. Depending on the year of your SD...will depend if you have the correct wire harness plug. If you do not have the correct plug, then all that is needed is to tap into the wiring for power and blinkers. Not very difficult...

What year is your SD?
