newer headlights on a 98?
 
I hate how the 98 headlights are with the blinker on the bottom. I was wondering if i can swap in the newer headlights to my 98.

You need to swap the header panel also. Which is a simple mod, but you will also have to swap the grille.

Search for 98-00 front end swap

Like Alex said you need to swap a lot of the front end to do so. Not hard just might cost more then you want to spend.

Totally worth the swap though.. I have a 98 and that is probably my favorite mod that I've completed..

How much did your swap cost?

Would you ever consider some modification to the stock front end? 01 swaps are sick but cost more money than this: https://www.ranger-forums.com/attach...ine=1345901722 clear heads and back blacked markers. just something to consider. were 100$ free shipping

Rockauto has the parts for about 100 bucks plus shipping.

I paid twice that for my grille and clear headlights/signals. Although that was some time ago.

I went with the whole front clip (sans the power dome cause Clinton didn't wanna sell that) with the Hellas behind the grill and bumper and stock fogs n I paid like265 I think? But my wife bought it for a birthday present so all I spent was the cash for the gas to get it from Clinton..
