242 lighting / grill 200

Hello,
I was just wondering if it was worth my time to attempt to change out the grill and headlight assemblies from my 84 242 dl with the round headlights and grill w/ fog lamps off a GT? I tried looking thorugh the archives and Dan's site but was unable to come up with a succinct answer.
I am using my brick curently, to deliver pizzas (I know I know I'm sorry but I'm a poor college kid and have to make money) This involves lots of fumbling down dark dirt roads. I am telling the girlfriend I want to embark on this change for saftey issues as the 4 light setup is rather dim. The real reason is I was in a boneyard the other day and fell in love with the look of the front end of the 242 gt(s) that were there. Time and energy are of no matter however, money is. I am hoping that I don't have to change the hood as this would raise the cost and also expediate the need for a new paintjob. I plan on going back to the yard tomorrow (or monday) to compare the wiring and physical dimesions as best I can. I simply figured I'd check with the volvo oracle before I begin.
Thanks,
Jerry
