Oizarod115 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 i think we need a little bit more information, what exactly do you want to know... you can unbolt the fenders/header panel and bolt up the new one just fine. its the wiring up the front lights that messes people up and you already know that.

pug Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 Yes that is all i am replacing. The two front ferders and header panel + the new wire harness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyc Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 When I did mine, I just spliced the newer light sockets into the original factory wiring. Pretty simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pug Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 Does anybody know if i can just plug in the 97 harness to the 90 harness without splicing together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyc Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 No. They're completely different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejndssn Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 i do believe that one of the members here used parts from both era's vehicles and made jumpers so that it was a plug and play you may want to do search here unless someone knows where the link to the post. :idea: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think I can help out there. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=11270 Figuring the wires out is pretty easy with them side by side. The thing about the 97+ is that they use a separate hot and ground wire for each side and the earlier years just used one. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pug Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 Well i got everything on.I thought the wire harness was going to be a pain. Turned out that was the easy part. I would post pictures but i do not have a camera. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
