if $$$ is an issue- skip option #1 skip option #2

Get a the grill from the pre-86 vanagons. it has two round 7" light. Spend the money on Cibies 7" lights (get this from Daniel Stern lighting. google for him). The round 7" lights are 10^3 times better than the stock square lights you are runnign right now. The SA grill with the inner lights looks good but you'll be amazed at how well JUST the 7" e-code lights illuminate the night (w/o the inner lights). I rarely run the inner lights.

Obtaining the round buckets for the lights is not a big deal as MANY vehicles have them...

btw, the sa grill doesn't require any bra modifications (for the bra i have from VolksCafe.com)
