Default Quad headlights

So this may be blasphemous to some of the original guys out there, but I was thinking of going to a quad headlight set up on my 70 coupe. Could I just just swap the headlight buckets and fenders from a 69? Where would that put my turn signals? Were there any special marking light differences from 69 to 70? Has anyone else done this swap?

I think it would be fenders front valance grill head light buckets and the marker lights are probably different.

@andrew, do you think that the added headlights will play with my existing harness? Should I pull one off the donor car?

There is a different harness for quads because I had to adapt mine to add more lights. While I did the mustang headlight relay upgrade I was able to add extra lights with no additional effort. Cost me probably $30 for all the stuff I used.

Instead of changing the fenders (and whatever else needed), why not just add 2 lights to the center of the grill,,,, like a 1967 Shelby?

I might would consider adding the lights as well.
