25895, Projector Headlights for a 98 Talon?
Posted by Hult250R, Jul-05-02 10:38 AM
Im looking to put on a set of projector headlights on my 98 ESI, but all of them are advertised for an Eclipse, What year of Eclipse headlights will fit on a 1998 Talon?? If any...

Thanks for any info

for a talon.. projectors made for 95-96 eclipses will fit without any modding.. they are hard to find, but they are out there.. projectors made for 97-99s will fit on your talon, but they are smaller than the stockers so you will have a gap.. to get rid of the gap, you'll need to get a 97-99 eclipse (or bodykit) front end.

Smaller in what way?
is there going to be a gap on the bottom? sides? where?
Im not planning on getting a body kit so I guess Ill have to see if i can find 95-96 lights
Thanks

the gap will be between the bottom of the headlights and the top of the bumper.. i saw a 95 eclipse with projectors in my school parking lot and the gap was about 1/2inch to 1 inch.. i didnt get a great look at it because i was late to class... i was looking for some projectors for my 95 before i did my front end conversion.. and i have the link on my computer at home.. ill see if i can find it for you.. but since they are hard to find, the price is a bit high... somewhere around 300ish.. compared to the 150-200 for the 97-99s.

Uh I'm pretty sure if you have a 98 talon then the 97-99 eclipse projectors will fit perfectly with no gap. The talon/eclipse headlights for the 97-99 are identical (or so I thought)...
