    Is it strictly an off-road only rig? If not, you'll have some trouble passing inspection without hi-beams if you swap in offroad lights. I would make a trip to the junk yard to see if you can find the offending internal parts to replace them with.

    Those square plastic nutserts are available at a fastener store like Fastenal. I would suggest that you get some, they are cheap and then add the driving lights later. You never know when you will need to drive on the street.
