Ok, i got asked to do this so i will.

To convert an AE71 or a KE70 late model into an AE71, you will need:

KE70 Front quarter panels (a left AND a right hand side one)
A KE70 bonnet
A KE70 bumper
KE70 headlights (including plugs) and Grille
KE70 Scuttle (the panel between the bonnet and windscreen)

Take the AE71 stuff off, bolt the KE70 stuff on. easy as.
No KE radiator support, no KE bonnet latch. it all lines up.

You will need to pull the drill out for ONE thing though. headlight holes don't line up perfecto, so modify that and your sittin pretty.

Pics up later, now hillsy.

Again thanks Javal.
Even tho seems like it's simple there was so much BS urban myth going around about this. Good to clear it up.

Cheers again bro

As it says in my members rides threads if i were to do this again i would swap over to the early ke70 rad support. Only coz i have 3 bolts all up holding in both my head lights

All the plugs are different for the lower indicators, side indicators and parkers. The headlight plugs are the same
