Last year for the SSE was 1999....

And the SLE package was not badged until 1998. In 1998 they moved the SLE foglamps to the center and made the car very similar in appearance to the SSE on the outside.

I knew I wasnt going crazy about the SSE'* last year was 99. Thanx fuddy! I just couldnt really pin point the SLE badging either it was 97 or 98 . So 98 it is. Thanx again.

Me too....... The thing that gets confusing is that you have to use a 93-95 SE and SLE car. Not a 92. Aviators car is a 92 remember? I got 2 pics of them on page 2 I think. I used Jasons car and a green 95 SE. The panels do look a little different.

I feel brain washed now. i knew I should have stuck with what I knew.

Bonnevile Club members viewing this thread, I apoligize if I confused you all today. I knew I should have stuck with what I believed in. I knew that at first that the rocker panel does NOT clarify if you have an SLE or just a regular SE. It is all in the RPO'*. But I can still look at it. I just can tell. But I do apoligize for this. I don't want ppl to think that I don't know what I am talking about. I do tend to get exited here when its a topic that I am interrested in and go overboard in a debate but I just try to state the facts and know that its true and thats it.

As far as the lower cladding, do any SE'* have it and not have a spoiler or the reverse? Maybe it came with the spoiler. Just a thought. I need to do some looking.

Aviator had it, and no spoiler stock. He picked one up and slapped it on. The lower panels flare out and match the bumpers angles. I didn't even notice this till about 2 or 3 months ago.

I'd like to clear one thing up....

the 98/99 SLE IS and SSE body. There'* only 2 styles of bodies for each model, an SE and an SSE.

If your going to do the years (and this is what I learned previously) Use all the years. Break it down because others will think that there car is left out or that year dont have the option. ie.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a '96 SLE with the H4U option code. As far as I've noticed, it'* the same as the SSE. The SSEI was different because it had the center mount fogs. Just kind of curious why '96 is left out everywhere (ie: 93-95, 97-98 )?
