Default anyone done '92 headlights on del sol?

I was wanting to get rid of the big round lights in the front of my sol. so i wanted to do '92 headlight because they look close to the same. has anyone done this conversion? would i need to change the finders and hood? or could i just change the lights and the bumper?

any info would help
thank

assuming you mean doing a front end conversion for a 92 civic

you'll need the radiator support, headlights, bumper, hood, and a set of del sol and civic fenders that basically will be cut in half then welded together to fit(back half sol fenders, front half civic fenders).

wait slow down. so you're asking this...
"can a 92-95 civic frontend be done to a sol?"
your answer is here:
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by saxman &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">you'll need the radiator support, headlights, bumper, hood, and a set of del sol and civic fenders that basically will be cut in half then welded together to fit (back half sol fenders, front half civic fenders).</TD></TR></TABLE>

now what are you asking here? if a 96-97 stock sol bumper will fit? yes it will, but you will be eliminating the aux. lights (assuming you have a 93-95 sol).

but if you're asking if a 96-98/99-00 civic bumper will fit, then no. you will still need to do this:
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by saxman &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">you'll need the radiator support, headlights, bumper, hood, and a set of del sol and civic fenders that basically will be cut in half then welded together to fit(back half sol fenders, front half civic fenders).</TD></TR></TABLE>

There's a crx locally with that. I'm not a big fan of front end swaps, but it looks really good in that case.

integra lights on my del sol would be gay.

i just want to get rid of the little round lights up front. i was thinking 92-96 civic but that is proving to be to much of a hassel.

yes, i'm taking about '97 sol front bumper, i think that is the look i want

then that's all you need. Just get a 96-97 bumper and take out your aux lights.

you don't need to even actually take the aux lights out. 96-97 bumper will go right over them.
