G71 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 are 71 and 72 front grills interchangeable? or are other parts/modifications needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Brichta Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I believe the 71 vs 72 headlight extensions are different. Also, the turn signal/parking lights are in the 72 grille while the 71's have them in the bumpers. I'm sure you could make it work if you had to.

MC1of80 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 To add to what Mike said, the upper grille mount, aka tie bar is different. It's notched for the turn signals. The radiator support itself differs in that it has 2 holes cut into it for the turn signal socket/ wires to pass through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 As Mike said, If you change the grill you need to change the headlight extensions. You anso have to deal with the different locations of the signal lights (bumper vs grill). It is all bolt on parts though without any heavy modifications. It is easier to change a 72 to a 71 than it is to change a 71 to a 72 for the reasons Thomas mentioned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
