Gday All
On my WB ute i want to change it over to a statesman front end. Just wandering if i only have to change over the lights and the grill or if i have to change over the nose cone and the bumper as well. Any info would be good.
Cheers BAD WB

BAD WB.
CHange your whole clip if possible, faster and easier.(30 min off, 30 min on)
paint it when its off,?
plug your harness in when you are done!

otherwise, you will have to delete that little metal piece to allow for the longer lights.

Differences are nose, radiator support and lights. Plus harness of course. Bumbers are interchangeable but Statesman has the rubber.

adam PERTH - What is the difference between series I WB Kingswood and series II WB Kingswood front clips? I thought they were identical from 1980-1984.

there were also series 1 and 2 WB Statesmans

Round headlight was just the base model (HOLDEN) introduced in April 1980. The square headlight was the KINGSWOOD ute also released in April 1980. The square headlight became standard on HOLDEN ute/van in August 1980 and on the tonner in April 1981. They
