Clear 01 screw headlights?

I've been searching for a while for the Lightning style headlights for my screw but can't seem to find any specifically for a screw... Will Lightning headlights fight into the screw assembly or will some modifications have to be made?
Do they sell clear screw lights for the 01 model?

Any head lights from 97-03 will fit your truck. The only thing they changed is the tail lights depending on your body style.

Black Ebay knock offs, that need to be resealed after a year, to give you different look options.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll be getting them soon.

My01SCrew, I like those lights, when you resealed did you just use epoxy?

If you look in some of my older pictures I had the nice blacked out projector headlights but the plastic on the front of the light was about to melt through from the temp of the light hitting it only after a couple months of being on, I even used the bulbs that came with the lights!!! The manufacture or the vendor wouldn't give me a refund so I bash those headlights every chance I get. Cheap plastic on the front that melts.

I haven't done it yet, might be my project for the weekend. When I painted the inside of my tail lights I just used RTV to seal them, I should have used clear instead of black. The corners I also bought off ebay, I haven't had a problem with them fogging up yet, just wish I would have went with the amber reflector instead of the white.

After looking at his album, we've got pretty much the same truck, I'm just missing the "gold" flares and I've got the black bumper cover. Then the whole off road vs. street look.

My01SCrew I don't think I'll fog them up, maybe but I think it might go well with my silver bottom. I'd rather have the amber side lenses. Have any links or you just got them off ebay?

str8t six, what do you mean the black L heads? I tried searching but can't find anything heh.

The head lights my wife bought on her ebay account so I don't have a link, just search 97-03 F150 black head lights or something similar. The heads are fogging up due to a bad seal job from the manufacturer, the only lights I've opened and painted were my tails. After a year I've come to the conclusion that I should have gotten the amber reflector instead of the white/silver ones I have.

Black Lightning head lights.
