Check out piaa.com for dimensions on the lights.

Then look for the existing threads by using 'PIAA' and 'DRL' in your Find. (I assume you mean DRLs by "smaller round headlights").

Did you already mount these in that spot? If so, how tough was it. SMA has the kit with a new bumper insert, but it costs some bucks.

Basically, you flip the brackets on the light to where they're upside down and where the bolt sticks straight out the back. Then, you drill out the hole in the bumper (plastic, very easy) and bolt the light on. It's pretty easy.

Mine face down a little more than I'd like, so I may "modify" the bracket a little to where it will be more perpendicular. It's a few degrees off right now.

The light itself fits just fine.

when you wired those up did you connect them into the stock drl wiring harness or did you run a switch?
im thinking i could get the plugs from gm and wire them direct to the drls but dont know if the gauge of the wire is the same or close to it

I ran all new wiring and don't use them as DRLs. It could be done pretty easily, though.
