    Just inherited this truck from my 83to father who recently passed. I would sure like to have brighter headlights but I have no idea where to even start to look. Looking for window trim replacement also!

    I'm guessing the truck still has sealed beam headlights. You need to swap the old sealed beams for a 200mm H4 conversion, Hella makes some excellent units. From there look at swapping the included bulbs with some H4 Tungsram Nighthawk Xenon +120s or H4 Philips Racing Vision +200. The Philips will have a better low beam, but the high beam will be reduced over stock due to a blue coating over the filament. The Tungsram won't have as strong as a low beam as Philips, but will have a better high beam. Both with be a good upgrade over standard H4s.
