You would be better off e-mailing the seller of the hood. He will be able to answer all your questions about it since it's in his hands right now.

if it is a 96-98 hood then there is a 99% chance that it will not work without some major modification. The wat the fenders meet the headlights and the way the headlights are shaped are slightly different which would affect the way the hood is up front. Plus I think the latch is different as well.

Like I said I think the way the fenders, headlights, and hood meet is slightly different. I may be wrong though. Plus moving the latch might be a bitch. Because if you do need to move it, what part would you move? The hood part or the latching part on the core support?
