Headlight Conversion???
Friday, December 23, 2005 6:59 AM
What all do I need to swap out 95-99 headlights for 00-02 headlights?

I don't know much about those two models years but the little I do know. I would think not that much. You may need to change the front bumper cover becuase I think the 95-99 headlights are smaller than the 00-02 headlights. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

you'll need the headlights and corners(obviously), an 00-02 front bumper, and harness; for the lights, since you are going from a 2 bulb setup to a 1 bulb setup

i wouldnt suggest clipping the original harness' to make it work. it can be done, but is a PITA. my 99 was clipped like that, and i have troubles with it every damn day

you also need the fenders from the '00-'02

no you dont need the fenders, you just need the bracket for the 00-02. the 95-99 fenders have the bracket built on to the fender, just cut it off and put on the new one

all you need is the lights and harnesses. then you can either swap over to a 00-02 bumper or just shave the one you have now.

so how many times have we talked about headlight or cav-fire/firec-av conversions in the past threee months. I'd say about 45 times. That sound about right?

I think you have it wrong, oh so wrong. This does not get covered like 45 times in the past 3 months. It was only 44 times. God you over exagerate so much.

I don't think you have to change the wiring on a sunfire to do this conversion. You have one bulb and so does the conversion. You can just use the wiring you have right now I believe.

cavi 95-99 & sunfire 03+ = two bulb system
cavi 00+ & sunfire 95-02 = one bulb system

2 bulb system has 4 wires to each headlight assembly
1 bulb system has 3 wires to each headlight assembly

When going from 2 bulb to 1 bulb(or 95-99 to 2000+) you cap off 1 wire, forgot which one though.
