What differences are there in the 96 Spyder vs. 97-99 Spyder?
Besides the obvious changes that happened to the front and rear body panels of all Eclipse models, there are several other differences. First off, if you plan on putting a turbo on your 1996 Spyder, you’ll find that the washer fluid bottle is right where the stock SMIC would go, instead of in the back of the car. The 97-99 models also have a fuel pump module which varies voltage to the pump based on engine RPM. The 1996 car does not have this. There are also the cosmetic differences, such as black door handles & mirrors, instead of having them painted the body color. The 1996 Spyder also has a stationary black antenna instead of a power antenna.
