RE: headlight questions
I've done this. I bought a 95 that was in a front end collision and I replaced the parts to give it a 98 headlight set up. You will need the radiator support because that is what the 98 style grille and headlights will fit into, the grille, the headlights, and the blinker/parking lights. The 95-97 bumper can be used but their will be cutouts in them for lights that will no longer be able to be used. If you have sealed headlights as opposed to the replaceable halogen bulbs you may have to convert over to the 9006 or whatever type bulb instead of the sealed beam style. Good Luck!

RE: headlight questions
the sealed beam type headlighst are set into the grille an inch or 2 where as the ones with the halogen are flush with the oustide of the grille and it looks alot smoother. I believe from 1995-1997 it was an option.
