Yeah it shouldn't be too terribly difficult, just some metal massaging and wire splicing. Should look good when it's all done!

Technical Tips: For Cars That Do Not Have Daytime Running Light ( DRL ) Function: The Lights / HALO / LED Part Can Serve As / Give Out Daytime Running Light ( DRL ) As Extra Functions But In Order For It to Work, You Might Need Modifications To The Wirings And Plugs. Additional Wirings & Plugs For Daytime Running Light ( DRL ) Function Will Not Be Provided. Please Advice Mechanics For Installation & Remember that Professional Installation Is Always Highly Recommended.

**Please make sure all Headlights are install properly, sockets are tightly fastened and all O-rings or rubber gaskets are in great condition. Broken or loose O-rings or rubber gaskets on your factory sockets can cause moisture in your lights ( It can damage your light bulb ). If you happen to have moisture buildup in your lights, please try the following solution. simply remove the lights from the vehicle and set out in the sun or in a dry area for at least few hours. Wait until the moisture has fully evaporated, and reseal around the seams with a clear silicone sealant on the assembly and replace any worn down O-rings or rubber gaskets. This should alleviate the condensation issue.

Stock or retrofitted stocks are the only options that look good on the front of a pickup, in my opinion. Some stock Denali lights would look good.
