You arent looking hard enough. There are tons of them on Ebay. But to answer your question yes they will fit but you will have a nice big gap between your headlights and your hood.

They do fit but like said above, they will have a gap... Here is the difference with my 97 Talon when I put 97 Eclipse halo headlights in it...

Before...


After...

If the 95-96 headlights are longer and he is trying to fit them in the 97 bumper, wouldn't that mean that they wont fit.

He said all he could find was 95-96 headlights on ebay and he owns a 97 Talon esi. All the Talon years ran the wider headlights, so he would be fine with any year headlights really.

ok I got you now. I forgot that they never changed to the newer bumper on the talon.
