    simple answer sell your car and get one with a mtx ...


    complex answer, basically a front clip ... you need everything that touches the engine and trans, subframe, wiring harness, mounts, ecu, etc ...

    it can be done but unless you have a parts car it will be very expensive .... make sure the parts car is of the same year and fuel system configuration and just swap everything over ....

    Ditto. Unfortunately, because Contours are soo cheap, it makes much more sense to just go buy a MTX. That's what I did.

    My '96 GL cost me a whopping $800. The clutch needs to be replaced and the cat needs to be gutted, but other than that, it is running perfectly.
