Is there an "easy" way to make the conversion from Glade Riders to Wild Riders? The price difference for the boxed unit is amazing for basically just buying a headpiece on the horses.

Best way I can think of is to make the riders themselves look more...feral and fey. Along with using the spear arms and the more ornate cloaks. Maybe using the masked archer heads and painting the more visible pieces of "armor" as a bronze in place of the standard leathers.

Here is an interesting idea ,

glue some flocking material onto part of the armor.
and add lots of tattoos on the horses

I was thinking of combining dryad heads as "masks" along side all the tree bits stuck to them...that might look cool

Are wardancers plastic/metal? I thought about buying a few and using the top halves as the mounts.

Metal.

Well the wild riders themselves are metal, too.

I understand that The glade riders are not metal, though. But since I can get 8 Glade Riders for $15 cheaper than 5 Wild ones, I was just trying to figure out a way to make an easy conversion.
