headlights

so im sure there is a thread somewhere for it, but i couldnt find just the right one. i want to switch from single headlights on my 88, to the composite. i have the lenses, the grille, and marker lights. as for the wiring, could i just cut the four pigtails off of another truck, and splice them into mine?

Re: headlights

your single sealed beam will have 3 wire pigtail i think the wires are green brown and black. you just put all the black wires together. it is that simple. basically match the colors. if you need pigtails for the composite headlights i have a set. just pay the shipping and there yours.
