I think you have to upgrade to the dual headlight first, square not round, and get the whole front end clip after that they do sell the HID kits for 84 and up.

Order the european style clear lenses from LMC then go to v-leds.com and order the HID kit for the H4(9003) bulbs. while there you can get replacement led bulbs for the rest of your lights. I'll post links and pics up later of my led lights I've got later. right now I gots-t-gits t'work.

You can get a late model jeep headlight & put a hid kit in it...

Current Street Trucks mag has an article on round led headlights and I think they installed them in a round eye squarebody.

Could do what I am doing & go with a set of LED headlights - they are WAY brighter & last longer!!! Also got the LMC LED taillight conversion kit & all my other lighting is also going to be LED when my truck is done.
