Sealed-beam headlight mod question
 
I'm sort of leaning toward restoring my Jimmy's front end to the 95-97 look (former owner had a small accident and replaced the grill, lights, and hood with Blazer parts), as it just seems to me to have a bit more character than the 98+ Jimmy front end, which seems so "generic SUV". I see that there seems to be a choice for my grille, of either sealed-beam or composite headlights.

I've looked on the internet for some photos but I can't seem to find any examples of a 95-97 Jimmy with stock sealed-beam headlights; they only seem to have composite. But surely the choice in aftermarket parts wouldn't exist unless the sealed beams really were an option on these vehicles; so why can't I seem to find any photos of them?

At any rate, the headlights and grille are available. Here's the question: has somebody somewhere made a headlight that looks like a sealed-beam unit, but actually takes halogen bulbs? And if not, and I decide to go with a sealed-beam lamp, is there nothing more to the mod than cutting off the halogen-bulb plug and splicing on a sealed-beam plug?

You might want to get the relay harness from LMC truck to go along with them, it will make the lights brighter, and put less strain on your electrical system .

I just went over to LMC to look at that relay and it shows to put all the lights on at the same time, now i have a 95 so its just the signle square sealed beam, would i still want/need that relay if its only one light?
