I think I read somewhere that this is an easy switch. True? And if so, would anyone be up for trading their smoked lights for my 2k2's?

 

hombre,

I have a 2k and would like to trade you my smoked tails. I sent you a PM. Holla back.

 

try to make a post in the FOR SALE section of the org. You will have more of the correct audience there.

 

It is a direct swap... INCLUDING the wire harness and bulbs. You can't use the wire harness and bulbs from a 2k on a 2k2 (and vice versa).

The hardest part is prying the light off with all of that sticky black glue...

Ok, I'm a wee bit confused here. Did you mean to write "You can use the wire harness and bulbs from a 2k on a 2k2 (and vice versa)."

Please clarify. Thx man.

 

He's saying if we make the swap, send the harnesses as well as the lights.

BTW, sent you a hotmail.

 

 

I would also be will to trade if they fall through.

Yes it works. Plug and play. Here is a pic of my 2K2, which I also swapped badges on.

 

Hombre, I sent you an email. Looking forward to the swap.

PMed you GeSeKeE19

 

I did this swap with a fellow org member about 2 months ago. I traded my smoked 2K SE tails for his clear 2K3 tails. They are a direct swap - no wiring issues at all.

The hardest part is breaking the seal of the rubberized sealant used between the light housing and the body of the car. Once you pull the 4 nuts off the inside of the light, you'll need a long bar of some kind to prop inside the trunk and place pressure against the rear of the light housing. It takes a fair amount of pressure and a little patience - keep steady pressure on the light, but don't force it - the bond will break, but it takes some time.

Just make sure you pick up a replacement for the seals before you pull the lights - the old seals may or may not be reusable, depending on their condition when the lights get pulled off. Also, the seal is like tar - wear gloves, and keep the crap off your paint.

There is no wiring to do - simply unplug the lights, swap them out, and plug them back in. It's literally as easy as that.
