I am working on a kit to do the conversion. I made all the parts by hand. I have a 3D printer and am trying to refine the bezel. I should have updates soon. Thanks for the kind words. I really enjoy the reactions from people when they see it.

I hope so! I won't drive it until we have had at least 2 good rainy days after the last day they salt the roads. Probably a month from now....

Your timing is good, I have been working on the headlights again. Winters in Minnesota are a great time to work on projects. This winter I installed a Holley/Weiand 174 blower with air/water intercooler and have that just about wrapped up. Here are some pics. I will post more on the...

I agree. It is a much higher RPM than I expected. I will check the next chance I have, they may be factory 4.10's. It came with the manual transmission and sport seats and I expect anyone ordering that package may have equally been inclined to order the lower gears. I know it has the 8.8...

You do live pretty close and that could be handy, especially for things like the light harness adapter I want to build. I cut my harness but figured it would be easy to build an adapter so it is more plug and play. I can test fit everything on my Explorer but I can't un-cut my harness!

:) Glad you like them! I just got back from my holiday vacation and plan to get to work on the kits ASAP. The nice part about taking a vacation is it gave me some time to think of some easier ways to build the kit and make it even easier to install. It may take a while but I hope to have...

Awesome someone is interested in a round headlight kit! No promises but I plan to get the design done this winter. I don't have a wiring diagram. I googled most of what I needed but I am still working on things like backup lights. I removed a huge amount of wiring and have a lot more that...

Thanks. My goal was something that was not over the top but would get people to look and comment. It is super fun to drive and when we are back in the Seattle area (where I grew up) we do take it out wheelin' in the cascade mountains. There are amazing trails out there.

I have a 2" body lift to get help with the V8, M5R2, and BW4406. They would not fit without a 2" or 3" body lift or some serious modifications to the underside of the Explorer. The tires are a metric size that is the same size/tire that comes on a new Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. They measure up to...

I posted some pictures of my round headlight conversion and was asked to post some more pics and details on my Explorer. This is my thread to do just that. I am on vacation and had to go back into my facebook feed for the pictures and I am sure I am missing some other good ones but I think...

I realize this is an old thread but wanted to share that I did a round headlight conversion and I think it looks great. I am going to be 3D printing new bezels and may even print an entire kit if there is any interest from others in doing a conversion. Here are some pics.
