Wings, Headlights, Indicators, Bumpers, exhaust, erm, early ones had differant slam pannel, but doesnt matter.

Apart from that, its interior changes.

Can swap dashes relatively easily, just need all the mk1 plugs etc.

Also, the mk1 sidelight plugs are differant, well they were on 1 of mine, but the same on the other? Piece of popo may have been modded at somepoint.

Or, be differant, go mk1.5:)

I could wade into this with my admin rep of course :p

Don't forget if you're doing the external gubbins, the Mk1 has different headlight clips to the Mk2.
