Question Need Help With Halo's/Projector Lights

So, since it's late in the season and I'm JUST starting work on my V6 premium with pony package. I'm going to begin with visual effects starting at the front and work back, and start the engine upgrades in the spring.

Anyway, Ive been playing around a lot on americanmuscle's site and am pretty sure I've found the setup I want, but do have a few concerns.

I was looking at http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustan...me-0509v6.html and my main worry is the process of getting the existing foglights and grille out and then the new wiring setup.

My other question was in relation to the headlights I will be putting in.

I'm torn between http://www.americanmuscle.com/2005-p...hts-black.html and http://www.americanmuscle.com/smoked...ghts-0509.html , but the question is the same for both pairs of headlights and the grille, "why do I need an on off switch?" shouldnt I be able to tap into all of the existing wiring and use the factory headlight knob? (Tap the Halo's into the parking light circuitry and the normal fogs into normal fogs and headlights>headlights etc)

Plus I was wondering if anyone has any other online sites that have better pricing than american muscle, or reputable EBAY dealers with quality products, since AM Muscle seems pricey on most of the visual upgrades, but decent on the parts side.

Deep apologies for wall of text in advance

For the Halo/LED ones you can wire the LED's and Halo into the parking lights and the lights plug into the existing wiring harness. Also, latemodelrestoration.com has good deals on the headlights.

i have the same exact halo ccfl headlights but i got them in clear and i just put a tint vinyl over them. and your right you can wire the halos to the parking lights i did it for mine but one of the halos burnt out unfortunately so im gonna get the horizontal setup. also in case you were going to put hid's in the headlights with the led headlights the low beam which is the projector part, you wont be able to fit the bulb in it cause its too small another reason why i didnt get that type headlights.

for the foglights you may have to run a whole new wiring setup where the current pony package wiring lights go through, its a possibility that you may be able to use the current wiring from it and just attach it to the fog light switch that you guys have in the pony package. the grill it self is effort less very easy to take apart. take off the radiator cover that has the pins on top and the grill just has about 10 clips that clip into the bumper if you want to be careful you can use a wedge to gently let out the grill from the bumper. but its not that hard to take it off from the bumper. setup will look bitchin
