01-05 Projector Headlights

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if there is such a thing for the 01-05 model? I have been looking for these ever since I bought my 02 ranger in the fall of 2001. Here's an example of what I'm looking for in case you don't know.

98-00 Projector Headlights

Make 'em yourself. You just need a little ABS and some cool looking driving lights. People do it with MR-2s, Probes, and RX-7s all the time.

You could always do a retro-fit.

I plan on doing this since I've consulted a company about how to go about it, plus if you use the real deal HID kit theres places to mount them on the header panel.

You mean HID?? Do a google on them. There are many companies that make bulbs harnesses and ballasts needed to just change out the bulb. There are some people here with them I think...You lose high beams though

There is a company that custom makes angel eye projectors for just about any vehicle. Here's a pic of the 01+ Ranger Headlamp.

My dad's 05' Silverado has really good head lights.. I don't know what exactly they are.. they are stock I know that. I just put a set of Eurolites in my ranger and they still don't compare to the stock chebys

My friend had a pair made for his 05 Cavalier and they were very well put together. This was about six months ago and there is not moisture in the lenses, no discoloration, nothing.

If im going to send out my housing and have no lights for, what 4 weeks or more? I would rather find something that looks like it would fit the 01-05 Ranger, get a pair of those and hit the design studio (the garage) and retro fit them myself. Then i've got a oem headlight with a projector that wont fall off and roll around in the housing when I hit a that 45 ft jump in Glamis or Pismo, or something
