you will need the headlights and the plastic doors that go around them and you will have to change the plugs also!
These are what the early euro lights look like notice they are still one solid glass lenses and only look like the us spec lights!

I would have given you my old US spec lights/doors when I upgraded to the newer euro lights but never thought any one one want them! so they got tossed awhile back
any junk yard should have them cheap but its nearly impossible to find nice looking doors as they are all plastic and faded cracked or broken!
your euro lights should be worth a few hundred bucks 150-200 depending on the condition!

What is the part number for the Euro Lights? If I have a part number, I might be able to source them...
Sidenote: I have a set in fairly good condition I would trade you. Why do you want to swap em so bad?
