    Lights swap Gu series 1

    Will the crystal headlights and corner light from the later model GU bolt-on to my Gu series 1 or will it need some kind of modification??

    I believe a series 1, 2 & 3 will fit but be careful, generally little changes in the models will be made to the headlights?? Check before you buy mate. Ring Nissan and ask them to check the part number for a series 1 2 and 3 headlight, if they are the same you have your answer.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    looks to be the same but thought to ask in the forums if anyone has done the swap previously so i can be sure about it before i buy.

    Well, to confirm, they fit:


    Ish.


    And now protecting the investment.



    Need to be aligned though, as one headlight is currently doubling as a Airplane spotlight. This is what they replaced.



    Also, hi, I'm new :]
