Phase 1/2 lights onto a ph3

[Chesh]

Is it a straight swap? obviously with bonnet change as well.
Any wiring or changing of wings required? would the ph3 bumper fit with the ph1/2 lights?

 

[jesus]

dont see why not

 

[Chesh]

yay!! i did search before posting but couldnt find anything, not sure how good the ph3 bumper would look though with the ph1 lights as its not the nicest bumper anyway:S

Can anyone else confirm the above post?

 

[jesus]

they arent really the nicest lights either though :rasp:

do you actually have a ph3 or are you just swapping bumpers and lights around etc.?

 

[Chesh]

iv just bought one, havent picked it up yet but hes throwing in a dented ph1 bonnet and possible some lights with it as well and im just wondering how easy it is to do?

although im not sure i will put the bonnet on as it is a 16v bonnet and the car is a 1.4 and i hate when people put higher spec badges on their car and this is pretty much the same!

Hold up a min here.

MK2 Ph1
and MK2 PH2
have completely different headlight clusters. I should imagine if you want Ph1 lights on a Ph3 (campus) or Ph2 then you need, bonnet, bumper and wings.

Am I missing something?

wiring would be different too. There is a wiring difference between Ph1 sport and non sport FFS!

i completely mis read the post lol. thought he was on about rear lights :s (been a long day lol)but yeh, what point8 says - would be alot of hassle. its the mk2 ph2&3 that are basically identical - PH1 there are alot of variences

 

[jesus]

i thought he meant rears too!

 

[Chesh]

what the hel are you guys on about since when did the mk2 have a ph3 and when did it have a 16v that i would mention puttin a bonnet on from?

lol im talkin about mk1s!

and why would it matter if i changed the bonnet if it was rear lights lol

 

[jesus]

you could have made it a bit more clear that you meant mk1, i now have no idea what you are on about

 

[Vish]

LOL @ everyone getting confused.

At a guess and I stress a guess, weren't all mk1 parts the same size?

Right to clear things up, you can fit phase 1 or 2 headlights to a mk1 phase 3 car, you will need the phase 1/2 bonnet (which you have)

Front bumper wise, the mk1 phase 3 has a built in grill, so you can leave that bit.

As for wiring it all up, i've no idea, but i've seen it done.

 

[Chesh]

ok thank you very much for clearing that up ^^^^
