15706, projector headlights Posted by Twiste, Feb-22-02 10:25 AM
Ok...im almost positive i have projector headlights but i dont know if they are the 97-99. I have a 96 and i want to know if i buy the 97-99 headlights will they go right on without any modifying to my car? Also where can i get the clear corners so that there is no amber in the headlight? I have clear side markers and want to go completely clear. TIA!

You'll need 97+ bumper also. the 97 lights are smaller than the 96.

not sure if i understand you question correctly... you want to change your headlights that you have right now, to get 97-99s? well.. judging from you sig pic, it would appear that you have 95-96 projectors (but its hard to tell from that angle).. is there any gap between the bottom of your lights and the bumper? if there is, than you have 97-99s.. if there is no gap, and you have projectors, they were made for the 95-96.. and if you are wanting to sell those.. hehe, i want them!! and yes, if you get lights for the 97-99s, you will need to get a new bumper unless you can live with the gap.
but like i said, if you want to sell yours, than let me know!! hehe

You can only find projectors in 97-99 style. If you want projectors for your 95-96, you either have to buy a 97-99 style bumper (which is any aftermarket bumper you buy, unless it's for a Talon) or transplant you lenses - all years 95-99 use the same back housing for the headlights, so you can transplant the lenses if you want to do the custom work.
Aftermarket projectors supposedly fit as a direct replacement.

not true, they do make projectors for the 95-96s. they are just hard to find, b/c not many ppl buy them. not too long ago, several ppl found sites that carry them along with the 97-99s. i think it was evan that ordered a set of 97-99s, and they kept sending him 95-96s.. they are hard to find, esp at a good price, but they are out there.
