Can't really help sorry, but I hope you are not hoping to call it an XR2i after this work?

Everything will fit so save as much as you can the shells are the same iirc. As above you do know that it will lose it's xr2i id so it will be just a 1.6 LX on the log book (if you inform DVLA of the changes) as you can not swop the id from car to car in some case's it will need to be looked over by DVLA then will be put on a Q plate
