For those of you looking to convert your front bumpers front an older or newer eclipse style or talon style here is a quick guideline to go by.

1. 95-96 Talons and Eclipses will need 97-99 Eclipse headlights to convert to a 97-99 Eclipse front
2. 95-96 Talons can swap directly to a 97-98 Talon bumper with no need for new headlights.
3. 97-98 Talons will need 97-99 Eclipse headlights to swap to a 97-99 Eclipse front.
4. 97-99 Eclipse will need 95-96 style lights to swap to any other 2g bumper

I'd like to add on to this with a pic of the headlights and why you need the corresponding headlights to complete the bumper swap.

2Gb on top and 2Ga on the bottom, btw.

Here's two more example pics if you don't use corresponding headlights.
97+ fascia with 95-96 headlights.  Headlights will tuck under fascia.

95-96 fascia with 97+ headlight.  Headlights will leave a gap in between the housing and fascia.

Moral of the story...get it right the first time and get both headlights and fascia of the corresponding years or you will have fitment/gap issues.
