I want to get the approiate body parts to change a '90 talon tsi to a Eclipse GSX. What do I need for the exterior changes? front little grille, rear center reflector? is there anything else for the exterior? Is it a straight swap.

For the interior is there anything else than the door rails(the plastic thingys that say Talon) and the center of the steering wheel? Are the mitsu and eagle steering wheels the same?

I already have one Mitsubishi and that is why I would like to convert a talon to a Mitsu badged DSM,. Are the parts needed easily available? What would one charge for such?

Thanks
Mike

Mike,
According to the 1000AAQ :
"This is possible, at least for 1990-1991 models. You need to swap the front garnish (between the headlights) and change the Chrysler rear clip for the Mitsubishi one. However, the Mitsu parts will go exactly where the Chrysler parts were without any need for modification."

Thanks greg, (now I get the PM you sent me on da other site!!)

Has anyone brought those parts in from a salvage yard in the US, how much did they pay fot the front and back parts?

is the steering wheel the same?

Probably your best bet is to find somebody parting out a GSX on the DSM Trader and see if you can get those parts. Should be able to score them pretty cheapy cheapy.

The steering wheels are the same but the Talon has a little eagle logo and the Mitsu has the diamonds.

The spoiler is different (Talon spoiler extends all the way to rear view mirror)
The lower side skirt is different (no Pontiac-esque Cladding here)
Tail light (all 3 pieces) are different
All Eclipses has automatic seatbelt.
Polished "Eclipse" plate on the door seals
Steering wheel with tri-diamond emblem
MPH/PSI dash board

Here is my 90 GSX
"Mitsubishi" on the spark plug wire cover

Geez that is a bit more that i initally thought! :rolleyes:

Do you have a pic of the rear?
Thanks
Mike

Sure just pull off the Talon badges and put Eclipse ones on Mike... nobody will know the difference around here!
