I would like to upgrade the headlights on my eagle 10 from the dual round lights to either the single square lights or the dual square lights(like the mc-12). I'm sure many of you guys have done this, so I'm guessing it isn't all that hard, just need to know where to begin. thanks for the help!

Search the archives for my comments on this topic - I think you'll find it enlightening. (pun intended)

Personally, I consider the transition from fewer large collector/reflector assemblies, to multiple smaller ones a down-grade.
Have you taken a look at replacing the current 7" fixture with E-code lamp assemblies (like Cibie) and Halogen bulbs? I run 6"x8" (200mm) Cibies on my rig and my pickup truck and I'll tell you the increase in usable directed light will make up for any feelings of "age" in the style appearance of the lights.
Also if you make the move from sealed beam 12v asseblies to 24v halogens, the light gain is remarkable. The only brawback with the 24volt circuits though is that most busses still rely on 12 lighting circuits (so some re-wiring would be nessisary to make them function correctly).
Cheers!
