He said he wants the 97-98 front, which means Talon. The only 2g headlights that are different are the 97-99 Eclipse. |

Why does that necessarily mean Talon? Could just as easily mean Eclipse, in which case he would need the different head lights. |

Yes you just need the headlights. Try selling your projectors on the classifieds section on here.

You can actually use the 95/96 lights on a 97+ bumper...
You just have to force the lights to sit behind the bumper a bit. There is a thread with a picture of this on here some where.
