Default Front End Conversion??? Possible?

Hey everyone, I'm new here! First post and looking toward a lot more!

Just wondering, is it possible to do a front end conversion from a 2000 Disco to a 2003 Disco? I am mainly interested in the updated headlights and grill.

Thanks for all your help!

I have read that the headlights are an exact fit. They're cheaper too...

Can anyone confirm this? I have a 99 and I would love to convert the headlights to the 03 model year

I was talking about switching from a 96-97 disco I to a disco II. Don't know about a 99 to an 03? Are they not the same already? To confirm what I posted go to www.expeditionexchange.com and read bout headlights...

I didn't realize at first that the lights in question were on a D2. So what I said may not(probably not apply) Seriously though what is the difference in a 99-00 D2 and a 01-04?

There were some questions on this at www.discoweb.org. One link goes over the procedure, it's a Word document:

For some reason, the photos don't show up but maybe you can get an idea of what is involved. Hope this helps, let us know if you go through with it and what you think.

I can confirm. My cousin just finished his front end conversion and I helped him do it. Welcome to the forums.

OK, so if you can do an 00 to an 03/04 upgrade. And expedition exchange says you can do a D1-D2. Can you go from D1 to 03/04? I found on ebay a kit to do the 00 to 03 upgrade
