Evo swappable parts for 08+ Lancer & Ralliart
I've come across a few posts regarding swapping evo x parts onto their lancers or ralliarts. Be it front bumpers hood ect. I did some research and figured I'd post some of my findings instead of the majority of speculative crap I've read. Lets face it, most of these parts are not cheap and Know one wants to blow money on stuff that wont even fit or work.
With that said below is a list of Evo X parts that WILL bolt onto your lancers or ralliart.
Wheels
Hood
Steering wheel
Seats
Headlights (09 plug in play, 08 have some wiring issues)
Strut bar
Tail lights
trunk/wing
Both front and rear doors (keep in mind rear doors have wide arch to match with evo wide quarter panel)
Same with the rear bumper, will bolt up but sides are extra wide for evo quarter panels.
Front bumper will bolt up as will the fenders but there is a problem. Front bumper needs the fenders since its a bit wider. With the fenders you run into a problem since the wheelbase is 15mm longer on the evo x this is a result of the more forward sitting lower control arms. In layman terms in order to use the evo fenders you'd have to use the complete front subframe from the evo x. (this I cannot confirm if it fits or not) If you didn't your wheels would be off center in the fender sitting to far back and possibly rub if work at all.
Ralliart front bumper will bolt onto and regular lancer
List of parts which MAY bolt up but have yet to be confirmed
Evo 8/9 or X brembo calipers
Gauge cluster
** if anyone can for sure confirm any other parts or would like to add anything feel free. Just no speculative garbage please.

yes i odo have evo seats in my gts with no airbag light also. also steering wheel does fit ive heard contradicting stories, i had an evo x steering wheel that i got for dirt cheap with airbag but i sold it for profit without tyring to install it. the buyer had problems installing the steering wheel properly, i dont know if he ever got it in right, i dont see why it wouldnt fit.

The only two issues I foresaw with the seats and steering wheel was wiring but figured it could be overcome. I'll edit the seats then.
Thanks guys. Hopefully this should clear something up for some people.
