Jonathan,
You have to order a kit to switch to Halogen bulb as opposed to sealed
beam (which is what you have now). The kit is $38 per light. Check out
Eurolights.com, they have information....actually, I have information..

here's what they sent me.....

EuroLights for most vehicles are just a simple bulb replacement (about
$40.00-$50.00 including shipping). However, your vehicle uses sealed
beam lighting which requires that you convert to bulb type lighting....
Which offers MUCH better lighting and once installed allows you to
change bulbs very easily.
 
Your factory lighting uses sealed beam lamps...We have a conversion kit
 which will replace your sealed beams with new housings which will
allow you to use replacement H4 bulbs...this is a great upgrade for your
lighting. It does involve some wiring mods as the plugs you have now are
different that the H4 bulb as well as some mods to fit the new housings.

There is no welding or cutting required besides cutting the wires to adapt
them to the H4 Bulb plug, just some slight mods to make the new
housings fit.
:)

Regards

Hope this helps ya' out....
