Upgrading to CV HID Projector headlights;

What would it take to put Crown Vic headlights on the Marauder?
The reason I’m asking is because apparently a company makes HID projectors, however they don’t fit in as easily as in the Crown Victoria. What would I need to modify to make this work?

Here is a link to the projector HID thread on CVN.

Your link dosen't seem to work for me: But they are probably the same ones sold on ADTR.net


I would think you would have to swap out the following from a CV:

Headlight mounting panel
Grille
Possibly the Bumper Cover if it wont match up to the grilles contour


If the corner lamp assy.'s are different on a CV (not sure if they are or not) you would have to switch corner lamps and fenders.

I don’t want my Marauder to look like a Crown Vic, I was hoping if you can just do physical modifications to existing parts.

Crown vic headlights look very similar to the marauder's but they have different mounting points, wiring connections & they are shaped differently where they fit against the grille. When I first bought my crown vic I wanted to install marauder headlights until I compared the two cars side by side & saw the differences.
