Hey all. I still don't have my car back. Unfortunately, I don't have time to tell the full story now but I need to know if they installed a 97-99 headlight on my car or they installed the proper (95-96) headlight. Basically, I went up and there was a BUNCH of stuff wrong with the car still. One thing being the headlight they replaced looked really bad. Here are some pics:

Those looks like the 95-96 headlights, if it were the 97-98s, u would have a good 3" gap toward the center where they meet part of the bumper.

Thanks man. I knew that there is a gap issue if you put in 97-99 headlights but I didn't know to what extent.

They are definetly 95-96 headlights... Here's some comparison pictures of mine so you can see the amount of gap that 97-99's would leave.
Here's 95-96 style with no gap.
