trunk swapping ?
 
The question is can an 02 lid be swapped with an 04-05 sti lid, even though there is a difference in the tail lights w/ the addition of the circle?

I think the answer is yes, teh little circle only changes the bumper but not the trunk lid. Can someone please verify this for me?

The answer is yes.

Pete here has a bugeye with an STi trunk/wing on it.

It can be done, Pete has the technology.

If you find a desperate STi owner you may get an equitable deal.

I've seen trunklids go as high as $500- with the money going both with and for the STi trunklid. :huh:

sweet guys, thanks for the confirmation

MattR 2005-11-28 04:20 PM

Deede is thinking of swapping her trunk, right?

Kevin M 2005-11-28 04:33 PM

I believe so.

bxracer69 2005-11-28 06:08 PM

yeah, thats y i asked, she pm'd me. Then I told her I had a bugeye and she said it wouldn't work. Someone tell her it wil, i really want an sti lid.

I sold my STI trunk/wing to a bugeye. It works fine.

I'll take care of Deede ;)

sti deede 2005-11-28 10:19 PM

Heehee Aaron took care of me. ;) Give me a couple of days to mull it over. I'm wondering if I'll miss my big sexy wing. I really like to hug it. :D

Sorry for the confusion, I called maita and they said no, and I didn't know anyone that had personally done it.

I've got an STi wing on my bugeye. Just remember to swap the trunk springs. Mine barely stays open.
