From what I've read those headlights will fit the 98 models also. That's on my "want" list but they're like $350/ea OEM.

Nice fog/headlights......not too keen on the egg crate grille,unless you have the awd? Do you still the original slot grille? Could be a good seller!

Great to know, Thanks! Gonna put that on the list for "Mrs. Claus," this year. ( just have to determine what will look best...Black or Chrome) I'll welcome all opinions. My 98 v70 T5 is red, just like the IPD Stage III Project Car.

Hey, Can you explain more about where you got the slash/emblem for the grille and how you were able to install it?

Those lights are hella iced out. 8)

My drivers side turn signal light keeps popping off while I'm driving because I broke one of the plastic tabs on the headlight assembly that it hooks into. I was going pretty fast on the interstate a few weeks ago and it came off and put a few little scratches in the front quarter panel. So I should probably just replace both headlight and turn signal assemblies with these.
