Montero gen 2.5 headlights compatibility

[revbillyg]

New to montero and just bought a 2000 gen 2.5 that was in a collision. Are the headlights from a 97 the same? Or do I specifically need to find the gen 2.5 lights ?

Thanks!

97 and older are fluted glass, 98-00 are clear glass. Should bolt on though.

I have a great used pair of headlights for 98-00 models, send me a private message if I can help.

The bulb connector is different and the housings do not put out as much light as the 98-00 housings.

Yeah it's a huge difference imo.

You'll need an adapter and some bulbs. Mine bolted right up no problem

Someone with a Gen 2 took my Gen 2.5 headlamp housings and gave me his old ones. I was not aware of any harness issues. The swap was straightforward. I only did the swap because mine is heading for the crusher.
