05-07 Conversion finally done on 01 Excursion

It really was not that hard, even with a couple of drinks! Had to do it since love of life decided to hit a 2x2x10 foot cement block and move it 3 feet...

Parts used:
Complete Used front bumper assmbly
New:
Headlights
Grill
Header panel
9007/8 conversion headlight kit

~Total time 2 hours

On my 99.5 CC F250 I only did the headlights. Now I really want the whole thing.

Bill

I'm also strongly concidering this upgrade, since I had a run in with a Trooper. I need a new bumper, grille, header and hood anyway, might as well be of the 05-06 variety. The X looks good with the 06 front, much better than with the 01.

Its 2WD and never sees any towing, so for now its staying with the premium sports mirrors. (They have built in turn signals and heat)

I was referring to the 9007-9008 conversion headlight wire harness.

Yep that miata (93-1.6L) is setup for racing. Stock engine heavily modified suspension. It more of a play toy for now.
