I have a 98 SRX 700, and was wondering if belly pans, bumpers etc. from other years will work. Got hit this weekend and I need a new RH side belly pan.....thinking of changing all panels to blue.
 

They went from a single(lower pic) bulb to a dual bulb(top pic) headlight. I believe what it is different is the upper pod that mounts on the hood,so I think the hood is the same.

No the wiring to power the 2 bulbs on your 98 wont work. You can run 1 of the 2 bulbs though...
 
i believe you would also have to change the stator due to the higher output bulbs huge diff in the lighting with the duals.

The problem is the older style stator doesnt put out as much wattage as the newer system. Two bulbs require the extra watts, unless you never plan on using your heatted grips and thumbwarmers :o|
You can use the newer hood, you would have to swap out the upper pod and use your single bulb headlight pod.
 
are the servo motor's all the same from 98 to 2002 in figuration.In other words you can switch from a 2002 to a 2000 for example..will it still plug in right.?I am just browsing for misc spare parts for the 2002 for the future.Looking for deal..
 
2000 cdi is its own plug into the wiring harness, it is duall bulb and has the better stator and such but wiring plug changes for 01, 02 to accomodate for the dual controls for the handlebar/thumb warmers. 2000 still has single controll for both the handles and thumb warmers. not sure but think the 02 is the only one with dcs, dont think 01 has it, if thats the case cdi may be diffrent but wiring is still the same.

hoods are the same, just the upper cowl/guage pod is diffrent. on the bottom side of the hood up by headlight the years are stamped into mine. pretty sure when switching guage pods they use diffrent windshields too cause i had an old one off an sx that would not fit mine.
 
oh yes

So do I just splice in another plug to my exsisting harness? Are the 35w bulbs bright enough?
 
yes thats what u do splice in a nother plug & the 35w-35w is 10w more then the stock 55-60w.thats 70w of light
 
I just put the dual bulb on my 98 and spliced in the wiring and when I fired it up both lights where working with no problem. Now the question is how long will they keep working geuss Ill find out when the snow flies lol
