haascncvf2 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 i realize my 95SE-V6 is a 4x4, and not a low-rider/show truck; but i am in the process of a few mods here and there... just installed a 13" flip down dvd; as well as a custom box housing 2 12" MTX subs. (still searching for the proper brush guard; once found and purchased will be installed) i posted a thread on changing my grill out to a phantom; but have decided after all i am not fond of that look; but am still curious/searching for a different look; what grilles WILL fit my 95 SE-V6. so this is my most recent idea; (minus the bumper pieces) i do realize this grill is on a hard-body truck; hence my question if it will bolt up... anyone care to coment? post pics of your non og factory grille? thanks again in advance Roy.

nunya Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 you mean this setup? been talked about before but I'll give you the basic rundown/parts list 1.HB grill of your choice (93+ pictured) 2.HB marker lights, 1 for each side (to make the 'trim' cosmeticly line up correctly) 2.HB headlight buckets WITH mounting plates to mount th ebuckets to your rad support 2.Headlight bulbs with pigtails the ebay billit inserts are optional (and you will have to cut the grill to make them sit nice and flush like and not look half-fast) its a fairly simple parts swap process with the only real thinking involved being cuttign your old headlight plugs and splicing in the pigtails. any snags feel free to let me know and I can help you out (HB= Hardbody pickup... just incase) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY1PATH Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 The PF side lights have that lower screw hole that hangs off at an angle with litte support. I've broken many of those on branches and such... The HB side lights are continueous piece with a single web in that area so they take allot more abuse.

ahardb0dy Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 the light was made by Carello, the grille was imported from Italy years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I don't have a HB grille, but this grille is off my 88. my pass side corner light is off a HB... just in case you were looking for other ideas if you can't get the Hb stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lint Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I have Carello lights on my Lambretta scooters. They can get very pricey! Maybe you can fab up some brackets to support more easily found and cheaper lights. I'm diggin' that grille also! Ebay Italia, here I go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahardb0dy Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I'm still looking for Carello lights, I've found some that were on ford cars that mount in front of the grilles that look similar. I've checked Hella, Piaa, Cibie, Cepek, Warn and a few other light companies and none make a light that will fit and still clear the little space behind the grille. But I keep looking.
