I didnt want to start a new thread as this one is close enough.

I noticed that the headlamp and indicator on Fanus's 4.2 pickup and many other older shape 4.8's looks way cooler than the headlamp and indicators on mine.

Can someone verify if I can just fit the newer ones?

The headlight holes are the same over all the Y61s. The difference is the line between the head lights and the park/indicator pods. The prefacelift have a sharp kink while the facelifts have a curved jion.

So if you fit face-lift headlights the indicators need to match. It looks from the picture you posted that those indicators are facelift and will not work with the headlights!!

Hi Steven

I see what you are saying, but its actually not easy finding a nice pic on the net of what I am looking for. And I am looking for both headlamp and indicator.

Here is a pic of Fanus's 4.2 bakkie which looks just like my Patrol's front end. I have also seen many preface 4.8's with these headlamp/indicators.

They will fit. Any of the y61 lights will fit as long as you match the indicators.
