I was wondering if anyone knew if the grill or headlights from a 05 and newer F250/350 would fit on my 00 250?

 

they do fit if you change the header panel, and get the wiring that goes with the new lights since they use a different bulb. I've seen it done.

 

here's a link of how its done

Wow that looks great, would you know anywhere I would be able to get the front grille ect.

 

where are you located?

 

Boston, Ma

 

not out there. have you tried tasca?

 

No I haven't is it tasca.com ? its kind of a sad story about how I came upon this truck. But there is a list in my mind of what I need to have done to it.
Such as-
-Exhaust
-Rims/ tires that will lift the truck up a few inches
-Body work getting rid of all the rust.

 

You can make the grill fit one of two ways... Way #1 is to cut off the bottom inch or so of the 2005 grill to make it fit. You can buy pre-cut grills on ebay. #2 is to put the entire 2005 front end on your truck, like I did. The headlights will fit, but you either need a new header panel or cut lots out of your existing header panel around the headlights. And yes, the headlight plugs are different for the 2005+ lights. Easy to fix though.

 

So If I just got the 05 grill and hacked allot off the bottom would it be able to work or would I have to get everything? And if you can would you know what to type in on ebay to find the precut grill or maybe a link?

 

Ok so I did a little research and found these on ebay. How hard is it to put on?

since you are going to be doing body work and repainting, i would suggest just getting the whole 05+ front clip.

 

Like 5 screws and 2 clips. My mother could do it.

 

I would do the entire front clip, but I think it would be way to much money. Also I think I can just slowly upgrade everything. Like do the grill first then the head lights then bumper. But I have a huge push bar that goes across the entire front with 4 huge PIAA lights that covers up allot of the bumper so I think it would be pointless.
