Sorta new here. Talon/Eclipse interchangeable parts.

[Baseballer02]

I have a 96 Talon N/T I just received as a graduation gift. My main question is, what parts are interchangeable between the Talon and Eclipse. Just curious because I plan on doing I/H/E for my first few mods. So if I find I/H/E parts for 95-99 Eclipses, will they fit on my 96 Talon? Is there any engine, suspension, brake parts that are not interchangeable? Thanks in advance.

The only parts that arent interchangable are some parts from turbo models and all parts from AWD models.

AdrenilineCrash he was not talking about parts from non-turbo to turbo or turbo-nonturbo. He was asking if the 1995-1999 Eclipse's r the same part as the 1995-1999 Talon's, and ure answer is yes. Just so u kno our (eclipse) engine code is 420a same as the n/t talon. Hope this helps

Miamieclipse, he answered the question succinctly and correctly. Loosen the drawers, man, no need to correct a correct statement.

Thanks for the info folks. My search for aftermarket parts just got a lot easier.

your going to look for stock parts of another eclipse and install them and call that aftermarket ?


or are you going to buy parts that say they will fit the eclipse ?

The differences between the Talons and Eclipses, within a model range, are the bumpers, spoilers, and plastic side panels. The Eclipses were slightly higher-end models in that they had electric antennas, remote CD changers (or, the cabling for them), "Diversity FM" antennas (a second glass-mount antenna besides the usual mast, on the hatch glass), and the HomeLink programmable remote. Oh, and the Eclipses got a "Panic" button on the alarm remote fob. The Talon remote has the circuit inside the remote, and the contacts for it, but no button. The brains for the remote also has the circuitry, so swapping the Talon remote guts into an Eclipse case will give you the panic feature.

All really big deals, I know.

I don't know how many of these features are in the non-turbo cars.

I'm gonna buy actual aftermarket parts, I/H/Ex etc. now that they are a lot easier to find since engine parts for an Eclipse will also fit my Talon.
