Changing the Grille

On a prefacelift Meega, if I wanted to replace the standard grill with a mini-facelift one, would it be a straight swap? No other mods needed?

Cheers

I think they are all pre-facelift, not mini-facelift which is what I want .. Sad

Asa far as I can tell from EPC there are 3 different V grills and another 3 Opel .. but I'm still learning how to use the EPC
