My own personal experience... If u change the fender, you will need to change the corner light, and either rig the head light, change the bracket on the head light, or swap out the whole head light/bracket with an 90-91... See on a 88-89, the side light screws in on the sides, this is obvious, what you dont see, is that it slides in on the head light as well... Well on the 90-91s, it screws in one screw on the headlight, and slides in on the fender... I know this, because I accidentally bought 88-89 head lights, and had to swap the brackets...

IMO, if u dont have all 3 parts, head light, fender, corner light, its not worth it... And even if u do, half your car would be the updated style, and the other the 88-89 style... So if u can get both sides, do it, if not, Id just find a 88-89 fender...


Tho, I suppose, if u get the fender, u can probably just screw into the fender where your screws go... It might work... But still iffy, and I personally wouldnt do it...

My damn after market corner light flew off the other day @ 80 on the hwy... Not a fun experience... Luckily the wires held onto it while I could pull over and pop it back in... When I was installing them, I broke off the peice that screws in on the head lights and just glued it back into place... Obviously not very well tho... Moral of the story, OEM pwns all!
