It would be nice to know what they did use. Like I had the oem 2 to 1 headlight panel but not the single headlight buckets or rings. I guessed and use 57 buckets and 54 rings. I should have used the 54 buckets and rings. The rings are a little big for the 2 headlight opening.

I think the orig rings were painted white so I would have to blast the stainless replacements --- maybe later.

It is now a solid truck, just looks like a patchwork quilt.
