    Default advice on make an SL a SLE

    hey guys i have a project car witch is an sle and a everyday driver witch is a SL.

    i was going to do up the SLE but to much body work and money on it so i was wondering if
    the SLE parts will fit on a SL??

    such as chrome parts seats rear disk breaks interior lights wire looms ect ect
    i know that the rear seats i have to weld a bracket for the head rests and some chrome
    trims that have to be mounted with clips screws ect.

    what else??

    if i cant find a SLE i will have to get a SL, cheap cheap too

    thanks guys!!

    yeah should be no dramas swapping it all over mate
    as you mentioned, some brackets will need to be welded in place eg rear headrest brackets and centre console bracket, but no big dramas
    Holden didn't go to any expense in building model specific bodies, so rest assured all parts will swap over.

    if both cars are 6 cylinders then the diffs are a straight swap. Swap the entire diff over. Main brake line will connect up to the top of the diff in the same place.
    However you will also need to use the SL/E master cylinder as the drum brake master cylinder has a residual valve in the rear circuit, which will drag the rear calipers if you use it.
