Sport model included: different grill, different bumper and was color matched, and 4 headlight bulbs (2 per headlight) unlike the not sports which had 2 headlight bulbs (1 per headlight)

In 1999 the Sport received a more drastic package which added the 4 bulb lights and different size grille, bumper, and facia. This is the "Sport" model stores refer to, not the earlier Sports that only had color matched bumpers and grille.

You'll have to order the standard light assemblies unless you convert it to the 4 bulb assy with the relay harness available at LMC.
