they wont bolt on unless you get some lights from the same phase as yours.. look for a 88-90 sunbird with those lights instead, then it will be a bolt on deal.

and yes someone will say yes they will fit if you hack up your header panel., but i think its better to do it the right way to start with.
im pretty sure all the sunbirds from 90 to 94 use those headlights and the same mounts they look the same as my 90 bird. i dont know if they will be a direct bolt on to a cavy though but i just figured id say they look the same as mine so i dont think you need to find one from the same phase
for sunbirds it doesnt matter, they all bolt up, 88-94 use the same headlights and grille. they'll bolt right up :)

they are the same externally.. but the header panel/ hood latch parts changed in 90 or 91 or so, on both cavies and sunbirds.. im at least 90% certain of this :lol:
yeah the hood latch changed in 91, and the ph1 header panel is completely different from the sunbirds, which dont really have a header panel at all :p BUT, the ph1 latch works fine with the 'bird lights. the header panel is something i didnt think of tho, it's supposed to hold the bumper down kinda, isnt it?
