sunfire front swap
Saturday, February 11, 2006 7:51 AM
i'm thinking about doing a swap on my z24. the problem is I have molded side skirts. Is it possible to do a swap without having to cut the side skirts?

It depends on what year front you are wanting to put on. If you put the 03+ sunfire front on you will not need to change the harness.

Also as you stated you can just unplug it from under the battery or some where like that I believe???

im not paying of a new front clip from a 03+ and unless someone volinteers their 03+ or if i find one in a junkyard(i dont that will happen), i dont thank im gonna go with a 03+.

i searched, i can get a 95+ front for about $150 give or take. but i've also asked in the southeast region if any sunfires wanna swap. if that goes down than it wont cost me a dime

^^^^ya, the 03 and up fires are a 2 bulb setup like your cav, so there would be no wiring involved.

but since you want the 95-02, you'll have to do some wiring since that is a 1 bulb setup. ill find the diagrams

ps - you should do custom projectors with the 2 bulbs incorporated so there would be no wiring issues
