Yes the fronts fit. Just check around and you'll find lots of info. Try the aftermarket appearance forum for starters.

If you want to add some addition flair to an Expy, you can install outer Navigator taillights in it too. I saw this on an Expy and it looked sooooo swwweeeeet!

Yep, the headlights and corners will fit.

:Begin Ramble
Be carefull though. I think the Lightning lights look great and would have a much better chance of looking good and of course no problems with the law since they do have the amber reflector, but I installed clear corners on my EB Expy about 2 weeks ago and I put the OEM corners back on today.

Maybe with different colors they would look good, but with mine, Estate Green, they just didn't look right. I'm not sure that on any EB they would.

Now on all silver and all white trucks clears look awesome. And maybe on the XLT they'd look good too. I think it's the multi colors on the body with the EB. Who knows.

But I'd love to see the Lightning headlights and corners on an EB. I think they might just look really good.

:End Ramble

Hmmm, I thought I was the only one wondering
if the 01 Lightning headlights would fit a 00
expy.
Does anyone have a source for these? I cant
seem to find them anywhere.
Ive also been looking at the Holly Thunder supercharger as well,but warranty issues concern me. So looks like @ 36,000 miles my expy. will get blown!

LILBEAR, Thanks
The rims are 17x8 KMC Hellions, and the tires are the stock 265/70/17 Goodyear Wrangler AT's, I went with 17x8's so I could go to the 33/12.5/17 if I wanted.

Dog you can find the 01 lightning headlights at www.fordpartsonline.com for $89 each light. Or you can call them at
1-800-549-2005 ask for Gary he is great! I put them on my 97 EB and they just pop right in. I also have euro clear corners with orange bulbs so the cops have no problem with them. I have pictures I just haven't had time to post them.

LILBEAR,

Did you install just the headlights or both head and corners? Can you post pics? I almost hope you say no, because I was just getting to a slow down point and wasn't going to do anything else, just drive mine for a while.

I installed just the headlights because I thought the side markers might be a tad to much for the E.B. But my wife wants it all changed out so I might be putting those in too. As soon as I can I'll post pics.

I have the spuce green X and the clear corners didn't help much. I put the stock one's on with the blue tint bulb to match my blue head lights and that was the ticket.

The lighting lights are looking better to me so that might look like the next change.
