Ray,
I did (sort of) the same thing. I put the headlights and grille from
a '98 200SX on my '97. As you found out, when you switch from 9004 to
9007 bulbs, the pinout is different. Two wires will have to be swapped
on each headlight. I believe the ground and high beam pins are
switched, but I don't remeber exactly. It's easy to tell by looking
carefully at the bulbs, however. Then swap the appropriate wires going
to the sockets and you should be A-OK.
