Mod gone wrong!

So awhile back I saw a pickup on here for sale with 4Runner headlights and grill.
I asked the owner about it but he said the previous owner had done the mod and it appeared to just be swapping parts.
So.....I score two headlights and a new grille off of eBay for a '94 4Runner....awesome!
Today I strip the front on my '93 Pickup and to my horror none of my new parts will fit.
AHHHHH!!!!
I can only now assume that the radiator crossover panels are different and I would have to hack up my frontend to actually make this mod work!

Nothing interchanges between the 1992-95 4runner and 1989-95 pickup. You need to change the rad support, lights, grill, bumper, side markers and lower valance..

It is DEFANTLY not a bolt up job..
