Hi All



is it possable to put the later head lights & indicators from a 1995 disco in to a series 1 1993 ?as i would like to change the lights and grill to update it reguards kev


There are a few kits out there (talk to Simmonites, I think they do something). But they're quite expensive.

I've read that the wings are different so you'd need quite a bit of modification, but this may be myth.

Hi,

I think you need to drill some holes to make the mounts (templates can be made ), you also need a new grill (as well as lights). You can see my slightly updated front end here :

ah, now I was looking at that following it being asked recently.

looks to me as though the front outer wing panel on the "200" type disco is the same shape at the front as the "300" type one. I've not yet looked at the headlamp mountings.

I suspect though that the answer is "yes". You may find wiring differences, but they can be overcome, especially if you have the complete light units with connectors.

the grille panel and the bit under the lights would be needed too.

same shape on the outside. I'd have thought that the potential to have different headlamp mountings was more apt to cause trouble. The later type sherpa vans has similar square lamp units, but there are 2 different and incompatible types of attachment to the vehicle. I've not examined the inner front panel yet.
