I noticed my 95 has different headlight bulbs, newer 4th gen seems to have a reflector type. Are they interchangable? if so, is it worth it?

The headlights are different for the 95-96 model than the 97-99. Many people have switched them out, but I'm not sure if doing so would involve an entire front end conversion. Before anyone gets mad, you might want to DO A SEARCH for headlight conversions or something like that to find out what you need to know. Good luck!

Peace

They are interchangeable but a couple of people have had fitment issues with only one screw hole which was easily fixable.

Take a look at my signature, i think its worth it!!
96 max with 99 headlights/corner lenses

I did have trouble with them lining up though. Behind the corner lenses there are two 10mm bolts that secure them in. All you have to do is drill out both holes in the fender like a 1/4" to make the bolts line up. All the others bolts line up perfect.

go to: www.autodirectsave.com or www.autobodyparts.com for very cheap prices on anything for the max.

goodluck,
Anthony

If I am not mistaken, the 97-99 are plastic while the 95-96 are glass? If this is the case, I would stick with the glass.
