headlights
i have a 1997 and i was wondering if anyone knows if a newer year dodge headlight would fit my 97?
thanks |
1994-2002 are all the same. Best option is a Sport conversion. They have two bulbs in each bucket. 9007 and a 9007 I believe. You will likely have to do a little sheetmetal trimming behind your light. But nothing major. And I believe that youll need two upgraded light harnesses per light.
That or you can convert to a HID - but they technically arent legal in a lot of places. Third gen headlights wont fit. |
If you do HIDs you technically have to have projector headlights because the projector serves as a cutoff for the HID. They work in regular reflector housings but they don't have a cutoff then and from what I understand is that the reflectors scatter the beam instead of concentrating it like a projector would

Sport headlights are an easy way to go, and with the wiring harness that illuminates all four bulbs at the same time, I think you will be very happy with the setup, I know I am anyway.

And,you can purchase a wiring harness to run both bulbs on low beam and it will also take the stress off your headlight switch by only using it to trigger the relay to light the headlights. That or you can convert to a HID - but they technically arent legal in a lot of places. If you have ever seen a guy who has done the "Sport" headlight conversion and used the harness to light the bulbs all you would be amazed at how well you can see.I have driven a truck that had it done and all I could think was Dodge should have done this from the factory........Andy |
i run hids in my truck with the diamond style headlights they work great
|
I dont doubt they work great - but do they blind oncoming drivers?
What exactly are diamond headlights? |
