New member asking for help to switch front end to passenger version. I have a 2005 Astro cargo that I want to switch to the passenger front end. I’m sure this question has been asked and solved on this site but I just joined today need help on how to do so. I believe I need the headlight brackets plates, grill, glass headlight housings and side plastic reflectors what I really need help with is how to wire Up the new headlights don’t believe the current cargo front end wire plug will fit on the passenger front end headlight wire plug? Please help. Thank you much appreciated. Jim

I’m looking into swapping my 2005 Chevy cargo grille out for the Chevy passenger grille. My buddy has a parts van with a passenger grille, all the lights, wiring and badge. How hard would it be to swap them? I’ve seen some posts on it but most of the photos are missing. My current grille and...
