Does anyone know if there's an easy way to make my YJ headlights round? Like a kit or something? :confused: Sorry if'n I irritate any square headlight fans (both of you), but Jeeps need to have round ones.

I would suggest you try to find a CJ or TJ front end to put on it. Hood and grill.

cardboard and duct tape..
exacto knife a circle from the cardboard 'blank' test fit .. and tape (use grey) to the YJ grill........... repeat on other side... for additional "BLING" you can color match the cutouts to you jeep !

Sacrilege you should be ashamed ;)
I've never seen the TJ swap, but I've seen the CJ swap and it looks pretty cool... Kind of old school on a better frame and more stable platform.
