Re: 2ga talon to 2ga eclipse question

It's possible but takes a bit of work. The bumper mounting brackets are about an inch lower on the Talon and need to be cut off and moved up to suit the Eclipse bumper. Other than that, there are some minor taillight wiring issues and then the swap should be quite easy from there on out.

Not worth it IMO. I think the 2gb is much more sexy than the 2ga, but to each his own.

Edit: Damn you Brian, you beat me to it!!

Actually Ned is just a little bit off. A 2ga are years 1995-1996 (not 1997) and a 2gb are from years 1997-1999.
