    If you are fitting the facelift headlights you will need to trim off a piece of metal off the inside edge of your front wing, that located your old indicator. You will also need to go to a scrapyard and get the headlight plugs of a facelift model.
    The front bumper will go straight on.
    The rear bumper will go straight on, but there is no number plate light in the bumper, as on the pre facelift.
    the rear lights are slightly a differant shape, so if you fit these they will stick out further than your boot.
    the best thing to do is just get your rear bumper colour coded to save all the hassle.

    Hope this helps

    To be fair though it's a matter of millimetres and not noticeable.

    Early models ran to 97-98 anything after is facelift, to see the difference, look at say a P reg veccy, then look at a Y reg veccy.

    While I'm here, will facelift skirts fit?

    What about interior stuff like seats??

    Thanks all!!!
