  • 97+ Header panel swap

    Recently got a 97 header panel from my buddy and am going to throw it on my 89.. Do the 89 fenders bolt up to the 97+panel? Maybe KTMracer can chime in as it looks like on his white rig it still had the older fenders..

        I kinda just bolted the top bolts on mine, but thats because the fenders are to screwed to put the other bolts on.

          About how much would a JY charge for the lights and all?

            The top bolts all line up however the fender bolts don't I made 2 small brackets to keep the bottom held down on mine and I'm going to get 97 fenders.... A JY would probably get you for $150 ish
