V6 to GT fitment?

[TDHJSilver06]

Does anyone really know what parts do and don't swap between a V6 and a GT? If we could start a thread and make it a " Sticky " that would be great. I know for a fact that the trunk lids are the same but the wire harness inside is different, the GT had an extra plug. Not sure what it goes to but all my stuff works without having something plugged into it.
Always see listings about grills being different too! Not sure if the front fascia is different or just wiring is different because most GT's came with fog lights.

I'm not much help on the S197s but I can handle 94-04 pretty well...

you've got me wondering what the extra plug is though... lol

Been too long since having our 98, then also had a 2002. Does anyone have one of the big Hollander interchange manuals? My dad used to have them years ago but not anymore.

The whole front bumper is different from V6 to GT. However, parts that fit:

-Seats (really anything interior wise)
-catbacks, once you replace the midpipe
-wheels
-brakes
-bodypanels (grill needs GT bumper to fit, or modification)
-rearends can be swapped out
-control arms

Which years are you referring to?

Which years are you referring to?

basically from the newest version of the 05 to now. I tried to get the foglight grille, would have to get new bumper

Which years are you referring to?

your generation. 10+ is a bit different, but largely the same

Thanks. Was going to get GT front bumper cover and grille but opted for chin spoiler instead and really like the look. Would eventually like to upgrade seats for better support for long cruises.
