Default Can you turn an AP2 into an AP1?

Found an idiot that is trading in his AP2 to a dealership. So I got his RPF1's from him already. So while we were swapping the wheels I asked if we could swap out center consoles and he said as long as everything fits, I do the work, and throw a little cash on top then we can swap out whatever...sooooo

Can you put AP1 tail lights, headlights, and center console into an AP2? (i've searched but haven't found any information, all I end up doing is finding the swap from ap1 to ap2) Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I don't see why not. The only thing that might be a problem can be the ap2 tail lights and their wiring since from ap1 to ap2 you need a harness. How much time do you have? My school starts I think next monday and at autoshop I have access to MitchelOnDemand website. You can get any info on any car you want.

I can get you the wiring diagrams for both the years, if you want to PM me the year etc on both cars. .

I think you have to cut out the tail light an make brackets also for it but it sounds like this might take a lot of time! Good luck!

Yea, from the research i've done it looks like its a little bit of a project. Will probably just swap center consoles and call it a day.

Console and headlights are direct swap, for tail lights you will need to do some cutting into the car and also cut and slice the wires
