dual headlights?

I have a 86 custom deluxe with single headlights. Can I put dual headlights like on a silverado without changing the radiator support? thanks in advance.

Not unless you want to make your own mounting for the lower lights and the turn signals.

Re: dual headlights?

Yea what Capt said... You will have to do a good bit of modification to the lower holes to be able to fit lights in them. You will then also need to switch out your light harness for the older one with the two lights so you get the proper high beam, lower beam setup. I don't think it would be a very easy job to do, but I am sure people have done crazier things. You can evaluate what you need to be taking one side of the truck apart and taking the headlight down to the parking light hole to give you an idea of what modifications need to be made.


Good luck.
