A lot of people on here have done 97-98 conversions, i think there is a thread in the FAQ section, it also goes by the name of kouki conversion.

About the clear lights, they are european one piece headlights, they should be bolt on, I don't know where you can get em, but try to find a contact in Europe, maybe at www.sxoc.com and see if they can find any in the junkyards.

Also I think there is something with the light beam how it aims for the wrong side of the street due to them driving on the other side of the road, but not to sure, try searching for Euro Headlights.

there's not much to see, it's just a 97-98 with 95-96 tails and 95-96 side skirts

I don't see why you were having problems finding info.

This is from less than the first page of my search

There is a whole lot more, but this will help you the most, from the main page listed under the technical section.

I've done the conversion and right now...my car is fine. Looks like a 97/98 in the front and 95/96 in the back.

Here is a link to a write-up I decided to post on the net:
