Headlights
I was wondering what the difference between pre7/96 and 7/96 and later headlights are? I have a 97 that was built in 1/96 and can't find too many headlights that I like for it and why I cant use the 7/96 and later headlights??Thanks for the help.

I see. Is there any way to change it so that I can put aftermarket headlights on?
