depends on what you want to fit.. but basicly.. take what you want.. and MAKE it fit..

square peg, round hole... all you have to do is change the shape of one of them and it will fit..... ...

this is taking into consideration that we would have to provide all of the necessary parts for him to do it right?

I don't do retros anymore...no time with work and school. I have to work on the headlights for a couple hours straight....can't do a little and come back or I might not do a good job.

There is a guy on the Bay Area...LittoDevil is his name on hidplanet I think. He does great work. Kind of expensive but I think he's one of the most skilled.
