A little buzz here and there, maybe relocate mounting holes and add a bracket or 2 - but it'll go together. This will make the casual onlooker go "what is this thing?". The chrome grille is a bold statement. Can't wait to see the end product

the bezels are the black plastic headlite surrounds that hold the corners.

No no no, the chrome is just the only one i could find. its gonna be all black with a white emblem and white MITSUBISHI lettering.

so the brake booster is done. i still have to make the firewall re-enforcement plate. you can see it here better, it actually
goes all the way down and surrounds the steering column port as well as the gas pedal mounting holes.

i still gotta make mounts to the raintray inside the cab, and tweak the pedal arm a bit.
but its damn close i think.

so i been looking at the steering box and the frames mounting holes, i think that modding the right front axle
mount arm to go down, and if one cut off the front most mount and moved it down & out of the way of the steering
box pivot to the drop link (hope thats the correct name) somthing like this:

the green is the cut and notch of the lower c.arm bracket, the grey is kinda how the arm would need
to go to clear the frame enuff for the LHD box to mount inside the framerail instead of a mirrored RHD steering box
it wouldnt change the offset over the framerail but maybe an inch towards the center of the rig.
from the OEM angle the column is on from the wheel to the box right now, i dont think this would be any
more of an angle. the only thing that would be off is the distance between the pivots of the steering box
and the idler arm. i was hoping the idler arm mite take up the difference, idk my experiance w this kinda steering
is a week old.....
perhaps someone with some deeper knowledge of steering setups might help dissuade this idea????

Oh, I see. But again, it looks like the bezels line up with the hood, the same way the square light bezels do. So it looks like what's too big is the parking/turn signal lights. If you trim the bezels it wont line up with the hood and might look weird.
I bet you that if you used the Ram 50 parking lights it would be the correct width.

There's a version of the lights (sold in the Australian market, I'm told by my friends here) that is two tones, amber and clear like the Montero, and fits two bulbs, one for parking light and one for the turn signal. Here is one with the silver trim, could't find a black one just now, but I know they are out there as my truck has them:

Here's a picture of the front of my truck, you can see how the two tone corner lights look like (and also confirm that the square bezels line up with the hood, like the round one do)

Just a suggestion, might be worth considering, as the trimmed bezels could end up looking weird.

It's gonna be a fun truck no matter what
