Putting '71-72 hidden headlights in a '73, what is needed?

Just wondering if any of you have put in 71-72 hidden headlight grille on a 73-74 body, and what to do.

Does it need a new headlight harness? Anything to modify? I know to put in the 71-72 bumper, there is some slight modification.

Any help is highly appreciated.

I installed a 72 set into my 74 number and slid it right in. There are no mods unless you want to tuck in your bumper in which I did.

For the flip lights to work, anything else you need to do?

Once I had everything mounted I ran the 2 wires up through the firewall. I purchased 2 inline replaceable fuse links. Bought a 3 way switch. Hot to the center. Close wire hooked to the right and close wire hooked to the left. I added the fuses in each wire for safety reasons. I toggle it right to close and then place it back in center. Toggle to the left to open and then toggle it back to center. I do this so there is not a constant feed to either wire.
