Yep. Should be a pretty straight forward swap. You'll loose the extra light for highbeam unless you get a SA grill or dual round Euro grill, but the lighting pattern on the road should be much better than DOT spec rectangular headlights.

I have briefly mentioned my 85 1.9 GL to 86 2.1 situation. I appreciate the responses I received. My next question is this: If I decide to make the 86 the "host" vehicle can I convert the rectangle head lights of the 86 to the round head lights of the 85? I apologize in advance if this is an old topic and I appreciate your input.
