Hey Guys (and Gals),
Quick question:
I have a 94 VtiR DC2 with the crapy small headlights- want to fit a bodykit to the car but need to convert the lights to the series two, larger lights.

Is it possible to just swap the headlights straight- same brackets etc??

Cheers

(and yes i did search the forum 1st but found nothing on the topic!)

it wont fit the pre 98 bumper... with 98+ headlights u need bigger holes for the lights to protrude out... plus the corners are diff shape.. so u will need an entire new front to properly change the lights...

When did the change (S1 to S2) happen? Was it 1998?

think the change was either 97 or 98- not sure

with the bumper aside, do the later model headlights fit straight on to an eariler model teg??

the facelifted model started from 98+. Pre 98 is diff.

The 98+ bumper will bolt straight up to dc2. Just make sure u get the bumper with it if u plan on chaning headlights.. as the 98+ lights WILL NOT fit in pre 98 bumper.
