lse bumper swap q's

[starfox86]

I want to put the 04+lse bumper and 03+headlights on my ls. besides those two parts, what other parts do I need for this swap? foam? renforcement?

and to put 03+ headlights in, what parts do I need for that? I read something about an upper headlight bracket?

If anyone has info or pics of what exact parts I need to do this that would be great.

Thanks!

You are going to need the fog lights and mounting brackets for the gen 2 LSE bumper. Those are the 2 things I can think of right off hand.

And if the fog lights require a different bulb, you will need new plugs to fit the bulb style.

Pete's right - You need new foglights and brackets. And yes, they take a different bulb so you need those plus the correct harnesses for those bulbs which you have to splice into your existing wiring.

To change the headlights you need the newer radiator support/headlight panel and you have to make some adapters to plug the new headlights into the old harnesses. They are totally different. I'm in the process of doing this and I figured the easiest way was to order '03-'06 headlight plugs from Max @ Five Star Ford and I got a couple of '00-'02 harnesses from a junkyard. You could re-use your existing ones, but I wanted to keep them with the old headlights (just in case!)

There were a couple of threads going around at one point with the part numbers you needed...

Some good info in this thread about wiring the headlights:

and a pic of the panel you need to mount the headlights to...

Doesn't the 03-06 front fascia kit come with all this when you order from Ken?


Btw I still stand next to the Oompa Loompa's....even Willy Wanka is having layoffs!
