It took a couple of thwarted attempts to get this done. So much more to installing than just plug and play. Two hours of test fitting and attacking header panel with a pneumatic die-grinder. My challenge was to leave enough header panel intact to allow possibility of swapping stock lights back in later.
All adjuster hardware from stock lights is still in place except for lower point (with vertical rod) which can be snapped back in quickly if needed. Stock lights could be put back in five minutes and would retain original alignment.
I'm not overly thrilled with this "look". I don't care for blacked out housings at all, so it was this or stock. Stock lights look OK but output is bad. I have a 4300K HID kit enroute to replace H1 low beams next week.
Many thanks to celly for steering me right on this upgrade.
One of my next tasks is to fabricate a liner/shield behind my fog lights. Front wheels are throwing water into vent openings on back of foglights, so water collects in bottom of housings.
