Often wondered this myself, is it the lower or top bolts that don't match? If it is the top the 2nd gen top hat should be able to be used. Don't quote me on this as its just an idea, guess I might take a look at my 97 tomorrow and see for sure.

I will definitely look into this, probably by this weekend as I have both sitting in my driveway. Will get back and let you know when I do.
