Actually, Joel and I did the headlights a bit different. While he used Ford buckets and had to do some hammerology... I used Dodge D100 buckets that were all self contained. They just needed to be screwed on. His round lights were behind the bezel, while mine stick through more like stock.

Maybe down the road I will get some Hella or Delta flat lense headlights and upgrade the wiring. A relay mod is definitely needed. But I love the looks!

I thought it was a different conversion, even though the base truck color was the same.

I'm not worried about adapting the round bucket, I have sazall'ed and welded enough. It is the surround part I have no clue on starting. I don't mind making a MDF mirror as in the link, but have never done anything like that before. So I'm shopping for advise.

Just something about round lights on the broncoII that just works. Ford missed the boat on that one.

Best picture I could find at the time. Figured I'd post it since most of the people in this thread mentioned it yet nobody posted it.
