x2, You will also have to cut the bracket off the fenders where the 95-99 corners are bolted to.

wat do u mean cut off the bracket off the fenders?
Let me see if I can find pics....

The bracket I have circled is the one that needs to be cut off....

oh that, but what's gonna hold the corner lights?!
Its debatable.... I dont have a 00-02 model so I cant tell you EXACTLY how they are held in. I am pretty sure they are attached to the headlights... NOW some who have done the swap say that is all you need to do. Then a few (not near as many) that use this bracket that comes on 00-02 models... The only thing it does is holds on to 1 little prong on the backside of the corner light. It doesn't make a difference either way. The circled area is where the prong goes....

please search this is brought up like everyday now.
you cut the bracket off of the 95-99 fenders because they are part of the fenders. then you get the other brackets for the 00-02 headlights and mount them to the fenders
i jus cut the bracket off my 97 and bolted the headlights up and rewired them with the new pig tails and ur ready to roll
