S13 FrontEnD CoNVeRsioN!!!!??????

[positron1]

I have my complete frontend and I plan to install it this weekend. Can anyone give me some tips or pointers on making the install easier? What problems will I run into? What tools or parts might come in handy beside the basics? Is there a raindance that you can do to stop it from raining?

Which front end? S13 refers to a chassis, not a 'silvia' or a 180, or any of that... Anyways, Im assuming youre talking about Silvia front... Anyways, its a bolt-on affair. Just replace everybolt and youll be fine... its not hard at all. The hood will take two people though, and thats the hardest part, hard to get it lined up with one. If you have any electrical skills whatsoever, wiring the lights arent hard either. Just guess and test... dont be afraid to try something with the wiring, and dont depend on the boards to help with it, its common sense and guess&test

We completed the installation of the body panels this evening. We will attempt to wire up the lights tommorrow. Trial and error seems to be the way just like you said. Thanks! Pics will follow.

FinisHeD proDuct! It was much easier than I had anticipated. The wiring was not as difficult as they had lead us to believe. The body panels lined up pretty good. The hood would not close but it turned out that the latch was jammed. It was a good experience.

The headlights plug in, swap the bulbs and connectors from your stock turn signals and they plug in too. No need to do any wiring whatsoever. That is, unless you want to rig up something for the center fog lights in the projectors.

That is exactly what we did with the fog lights. They come on with the parking lights and it looks sweet at night.
