Default 96-98 headlights or 99-00? How the heck do I tell?
Hey,

Well I have a dilemma. I am looking at some time sensitive headlight housings on ebay, OEM crystal housings but I don't know what year to buy. Heres the dillemma. My car is a "99" build in 98. Its a 99 Vin, 99 paint code, but most lip kit parts aka front, rear, sides are all 98! Is there anyway I can the which housing I need? I can provide pics tomorow if needed!

Thanks
Jeff

Easy way to tell is the front bumper, the 99/00's have to 2 slots for driving lights the 96-98 dont.

you can also tell by the amber piece at the bottom of the turn signal
