We have H6054s in the rectangular grill in our '91, as installed by a previous owner. He/she also put in the necessary buckets, I think out of a Ford pickup, but the fit is loose (the lights need re-aimed regularly, just from road vibration). The H6054 light pattern is poor, and an upgrade is something I intend to do down the road, probably to Hellas or Cibies as sold by Daniel Stern. Had not seen these LED light before - I wonder about their light pattern, especially on low beam? The H6054s don't fit all that well in the rectangular grill - the PO shaved off some of the plastic around them, and still the grill doesn't sit quite flush - more plastic trimming/grinding is needed, and I think the grill pushing on the light frames is one of the reasons the lights go out of aim easily.
