there have to be 9 million posts there on this

 

all you need is the 97-99 headlights and front bumper and it will bolt right on no problem.

 

The 95-96 are different sizes then the 97-99. You need the front bumper of the same years headlights in order for it to fit. Hope that made sense.

 

the 95-96 are about a inch longer then the 97-99 ones... you could put the newer lights in ur 95-96 bumper but it'll have a little gap, or jus get a 97-99 style bumper, since you have to take the bumper off to get the headlights out anyways. good luck you on ur new car.. DSMs kick ass..

I'm planning on getting a 2GB front bumper in awhile or so. Only thing that sucks is that the 2GB headlights fog up a lot, but shouldn't be a problem if you treat them with chemicals b4 the install.

 

What are GBs?

 

you can use your bumper with the 97-99 headlights, but there will be a gap. looks better with a late model front end.

edit: someone already said this....damn it.

 

hey you guys are realy giving me help! I really appriaciate it..... thanx alot guys!................now the last question i have is if i do the conversion say i want a aftermaket bumper like the blits for example would the be a differenc in what i should order because i plan on putting an aftermarket bumper on anyways but im not really sure what im going to decide on yet.....but does it make a difference in what i order?.....do i tell the aftermarket bumper company what year my eclipse or headlight style is?

thanx for youe help agian people

how about them patriots over them panthers

 

just ask for a bumper that fits 97-99. thats all they need to know. if they push the damn issue(which they shouldnt) just tell them its a 98.
