Halogen headlights in classic cars/trucks struggle with dim and scattered light beams.
The Dapper Lighting headlight kits embody the classic look while substantially upgrading the quality and spread of light.
The unique hi-low switch design keeps the costs low while providing a clean and safe light cutoff design, eliminating the issue of "headlight dazing" on the roads.
You get 7" round waterproof headlights and specially-designed 42mm Bi-Xenon projector (high and low beams) with adjustable light focus and flat light distribution to prevent blinding of oncoming traffic.

I know I am only a few years late on answering this but, this shows how much I looked at this thread.
I used 1 7/8 U bend exhaust tube. Cut to fit.

Here's what I did with the running boards and the outside of the bed. The bed is from a 73, on my 65. I'll run the exhaust under the running board.
