How on earth do the corner lights stay in place?
Tuesday, February 15, 2005 5:21 PM
Well I'm almost all the way finished with gathering parts for my 95-99 cavalier front end conversion. On the 95-99 fenders theres a bracket with 3 holes and the corner lamp seems to have 3 plastic sticks on the back of it but nothing is there to secure it? What is the part number for whatever keeps it in place or where online can i get them , at a dealer maybe?

Also where can I get the harnesses for the turn signal bulbs and the bumper signal bulbs, having a 00+ my turn signal bulb is too big to fit in the 95-99 corner light, also will the 95-99 Z24 Fog lights fit in the Import Fighter front the holes look almost the same size and im having a hellva time finding fogs that fit in it

They're little metal things with two teeth on the end. They look like washers that have a flare on the end for a socket to fit on. When you put them on the little knob things on the corner lens, they thread onto it and hold it in.

Don't know the part number, sorry... I'll go run out and get a pic if you want.

Rodimus - I'm doing this swap as well and was going to ask you about wiring the headlights. I have the 95-99 harness at home and the 95-99 clear headlights on order. I've searched and can't find nothing except threads that don't exist. You have any info on wiring 00 to 99 style lights?








Convert 00+ headlights to 95-99

For the record, I believe they're called speed nuts.

rodimus did you find what you need yet? if so where and how much. replacing my corners and headlights when the new ones come in and don't feel like driving an hour to see if the speed nuts are still in the street where the rest of my turn signal is.
