No...not without some cutting and fabrication...the front clip and fenders and hood are all different.
But yes with fabrication it can be done..
For 98-00 its a direct bolt in swap....

Get a ep27 flasher to make your blinkers work. Not sure why your lights don't work, I'm guessing you bought hid's?
