This headlight fills in better, because the edges are straighter then the one you have. Thats the 01-05 style.

they look nice, but they are realy clear and the side lights arent that clear i was trying to keep them blended in together like they were original. i hate the way mine fit so i just might go with them. and i cant shave the side marker lights because i made them the turn signals. maybe that was a stupid idea for me!!!

You could still shave them, The 01-05 has an integrated light to be used for turn signals. (Mine were hooked up as driving lights)

You could also make your own clear corners, that will be as clear as the headlights.

thats a good idea i wanted to shave them from the door but i hated the turn signals on the valance. i just may have to pick a set up.

The primer yellow truck with the shaved corners is mine, and the orange lights are turn signal/park lights. They are a 3157 style. bulb. I'm going to shave the valance lights also when I get my plastic welder.
