Just a question
I have an 88 Prelude and I want to swap the nicer looking lights from a 91 Prelude. Looking at them the seem pretty similar, but I have a hunch that the newer lights are wider and the center peice isnt as long, so as long as you take all 3 pieces, I think it should fit right in. Has anyone done this? Will it work?
The actual tail lights are shaped differently. At the inside top, they both have a downwards angle. On 88-89, the light ends at this angle. On 90-91, it levels out and continous on for a few inches. Can anyone do me a favour and measure the center peice of their 90-91? And is anyone selling 90-91 lights?
you'll need the lights, trunk lid and rear bumper for a clean swap...you'll need to redrill holes in rear panel for the screws to go through and shave some off of the back of the lights for it to sit properly...or you can swap the rear panel as well--will require welding.
If you don't swap the rear bumper, you'll be left with about a one inch gap, as the 90-91 lights are that much shorter than the 88-89s
