this is a yes or no question couldnt find it the thread

Are the 98 eagle talon headlights matchup to the 97-99 eclipse headlights not
bolt pattern but will the headlight fit with the bumper and not a have a space ...............

such as you would have if you took the 95-96 eclipse headlights off and slapped on 97 eclipse headlights you would have that gap between the light and bumper

thank you

I believe you will have the same problem with the 98s as the Talon headlights were the same for all 2Gs.

Agree with Greenstreak.

The 98 Eclipse lights are chopped in the center bit and leave a gap. However that gap can be filled from the bumper side to give stock appearance. Also as far as I understood from the owner, the fitment needs re-drilling of some bolt holes as it does not match the Talon headlight bolts.

however I do like mine better (check sig) using 95-96 Eclipse Projector Headlights ;)

Untrue, the headlights for all 2g's have the same mounting points and will all bolt on the same, no modification. The 97-99 Eclipse headlights will leave a gap as you said though.

its true for the headlights i off some lights on my 96 gs and put on a 97-99 headlight with some halo's projector lights ...that is why i asked this question if they would fit on the 98 talon ................

the fog lights dont bolt to the same pattern tho i didnt understand that
