What is the build date of the truck? Trucks made before July 1997 (I believe that is the cut off date) use a different style headlight mounting system than the later models. You need to make sure they will work with your truck.

I personally don't care much for the all chrome lights unless on a all white truck. I think the black looks better on other colors.

I'll have to ask my dad about that because he's the one who gave it to me. All I know is he bought it new in 96 and its a 97

That'd make it an early 97 so you'll have to change the header panel out
