Non-SVT Header Panel?

[Soundside]

Hi folks,

I'm trying to fix the broken plastic on the front of my Contour following my daughter's little booboo. Both headlights, header panel, bumper support and grille. Anyway, I keep running across listings for header panels that *always* include the caveat that the panel is for SVT. I've never seen one listed for Non-svt. My guess is that there is no difference, but I hate to buy one online without knowing, because most won't refund. Unfortunately, the local junk yards are fresh out, so I can't go that route. Plus the aftermarket plastic as actually cheaper than junkyard prices. Go figure.

For the detail freaks, the Oem part number that keeps popping up is F8RZ8A284CA. Is there an OEM reference index available somewhere?

Anybody got any info on this?

Thanks.

It's the same for all 98-00 models. There is no SVT specific header panel. I confirmed with a Ford catalog.

LOL! I was just confirming that also while you posted Tony.

Thanks a lot guys. That's what I suspected all along. Why do they put us through this? As luck would have it, I did find a used one today, along with the bumper reinforcement. Now all I need are the lights and grille.

Thanks again.
