you dont exactly need them.

lines will be a lil' off but its barely noticeable.

they will bolt onto a earlier xj with the exception of splicing a couple wires together for the turn signal lenses and making a small bracket to tie it into the fenders. once you have it all apart its pretty self explanatory. i just used some sheet metal to make mine
