Pre to facelift conversion

[alan-lee]

I know this has probably been asked loads but I need a definite answer and can't find any on the search option (never seems to bring up what I want)

Body wise.. What are ALL the parts to change to facelift?

Thanks

Obvious ones like

Headlights
Front bumper
Rear bumper
tailights
Are the headlight brackets different?
Any other brackets etc I will need?

Don't want to hear "why do you want to?" I just do!

Thanks

Hey buddy,

Headlight and Tail lights brackets (the ones that attach on the bottom of the lights)
Headlights/Tail lights
Bumpers front and rear

If its anything like the old civic conversion I THINK the front wings as well. (someone else can confirm that though)

Thanks Gordon!

Yeah think the wings are the same if I remember correctly and so is the bonnet

Thanks for that

thought about just buying a facelift? the whole thing will be newer and the dials are much nicer too....i would say all the tuning parts you have will be the same and swapped over easy enough

Yeah I have considered it but the fact of the matter is nobody is buying DC5's here in NI unless there white and under 5k and I am not willing to sell it for any less than that so this will be good cause I know the car is good and at least it'll be different to me!

Could always upgrade the dials too

Thanks for your input though

Are the face lift dials able to go in a pfl? Ever since someone termed the pfl dials as "fisher price" that's all I ever think lol

Wiring needs modifying I think mate, possibly a different plug.

 

[alan-lee]

I think someone on here has done it? Foreign member?

 

[dave7368]

yep, pretty sure the plugs are different...

 

[alan-lee]
