I haven't heard of it around this forum but, is it common (or easy) to do a rd1 front swap on a rd2??? There's one for sale here in UT. . . It might just be a seller's mistake or something, but I was just curious to ask smile.gif

Its just a matter of unbolting the RD2 lights, bumper, and hood and bolting the RD1 stuff back on.

Most people that do a front end swap go the other way around, rd1 to rd2. I believe the front support has to be chopped out and the rd2 support welded in. After that it's bolt on.
