Which headlights?
Which of the integrated headlights do you think would look best.
I kinda think the 2nd pair would look good and have nice visibility but dont want to look 'ricey" either. http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-Round-Crys...362158&vxp=mtr or http://www.summitracing.com/parts/upd-31378 or http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hfm-unilens4

Re: Which headlights?
[d] none of the above. sorry, i'm oldschool... I think the first would be the least ricey,but I wonder if the leds would actually function as directionals or be totally overpowered by the headlights...they might just be in there as "city lights"

Re: Which headlights?
I had actually thought that using Nr. 3 would be okay for my truck, which is a '69. If you use the '71-2 style grille surround and a billet grille insert, you lose the parking lights if you don't also use the same bumper for the '71-2 model. So, you have to have parking lights somewhere, and using one of the integrated headlights is a way to have both, and a cleaner bumper. I'm not dissing the later bumper, but just stating my point of view.
I'm also old school, but not to the point of ignoring everything that isn't originally designed. If it's what you want, go for it. It's your truck.

Re: Which headlights?
The flat glass/plastic looks ricey. Gotta have fluted glass headlights, use the amber for running lights and a lighted bolt in the bumper for signals.
