Projector

I am looking at putting projector headlights and clear corners on my 97 xlt and was woundering if i can remove the stock headlights and corners and replace them or if i need a kit or something?

You shouldn't need any kind of a kit, most projector lights on the market are designed with OEM fitment. I took my stock lights out and put the projectors right in. Only a little wiring for the LEDs, got some t-splices and hooked them up.

Are your new headlights as bright as the stock ones? Hopefully there brighter.

Found them on Ebay for around $120.00. they come in either chrome or black. Obviously my truck is black so I thought the black housing would look hot. They are brighter than the stock headlights for sure, but they can be a PITA to get them aimed right, but they will draw attention to your truck from alot of people. I get comps all the time. The t-splices are at your local parts store. A simple clip on piece that goes on the wire you're tapping in to.

Thanks ADT for the info, how about some more photos of the front of your truck?

Now you're talking, those are sweet looking lights. Make sure you post your pics when the install's done.
