why are you fitting pre-face lights to a facelift?

It's like puting a video in a DVD player- It just doesn't work

got them cheap and they will fit just need to change the plugs on the loom, there the same as the face lift lights just with different connectors.

They will fit, but with big gaps along the bottom of each headlamp.

Also remember you need prefacelift indicator units as well mate, but the best place to get the harness plugs will be a scrappy. You should find prefacelift vecs in most scrapyards in your area.

Remember he's got a pre-face GSI bumper mate.. so maybe the gaps won't be there once he puts the pre-face lights on?

He might be ok then as its the bumper that creates the clearance issue as far as I am aware.

yeh just thought.. maybe that's why he has bought the pre-face lights.

Is that right Nigel?

That was the idea i had in mind and as leeky said i will need the indicators units ?? the angel eyes Ive got are a 1 piece unit no detachable indicator unit is this what you meant leeky cheers

Leeky · #9 24-11-09, 12:06

prefacelift lights are a two piece design... Facelift lights are one piece, with integrated headlamp, main beam, sidelight and indicator all in one unit.

A prefacelift headlamp: Vauxhall Vectra 95-99 Headlight Headlamp NEW Light N/S on eBay (end time 07-Dec-09 11:57:42 GMT)

A facelift headlamp: VAUXHALL VECTRA 99-02 HEADLIGHT HEADLAMP NEW N/S on eBay (end time 04-Dec-09 11:57:47 GMT)

I think your confusing yourself.. If they are angel eye headlamps they will most likely be facelift and will fit without a problem, unless the previous owners messed with the wiring.

i no that but he said they fit from a 96-99 plate witch i preface isn't it and said they will fit mine but will need to change the plugs
