fitting crystal lights on my94 pre-facelift
 
hiya all , what would i need to replace to fit crystal headlights to my 1994 pre-facelift impreza ? would i need to replace the bonnet grill ect ..... ? many thanx for any info

Just the lights. LOL:D

Seriously, the rest is up to you. Can you live with the slightly "off" shutlines the new lights will cause? If so, change them and be damned to it.
If not, grille and bonnet ned changed too.

Why not put the new lights in and have a look? Or do image searches to see the effect? Google is your friend.

BTW: Crystal lights are just as cr@p as the older ones for actually SEEING by;)

As above, just change the lights and be done.

So far as I know, no where makes pre-facelift crystal head lights.

That would be correct.
Nice pics there Micky, useful info.

I fitted the lights on their own, & the gap looked worse than above, so i fitted grill too.
The bonnet gap now annoys me! :(
This is how mine looks;

Doesnt look too bad from a distance, but when i was fitting it i was obviously right next to it so now it bothers me a bit!

Doesn't look too bad. Your front bumper looks worse for wear though, mine is pretty bad too :lol1:

Been tempted to get a grille, splitter and lights myself to make the front of mine look a bit more aggressive. The gap doesn't look too bad though so I may just do it.

V3/4 After a few meets with my local club and looking at later versions i decided to facelift the lights/grill/bonnet.....a little eager to but the bonnet on and didnt line it up to well thats why there is a gap. All sorted now.

V5/6. After that i changed the Bumper/lights (again) and Grill (again) i should of just bought a V6 from the start lol

All parts are a straight swop. Im pretty sure you'll change the bonnet and grill so everything alines well.
