03 Xenon headlight quandry...

phylo · 08-26-2010, 12:58 PM

So as some of you may have read, my girlfriend backed into my 03 and broke a bunch of the tabs on the headlight to the point where its unusable... I have been trying to find a replacement on e-bay but am a bit confused as to what year models will actually work... some say 03-05 some say 04-08 and some say 03-08????

Does anyone have a straight answer? What years are compatible? They all look the same but maybe the mounting points are different?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Prefacelift 03-05 headlights are interchangeable, I have an 05 light on my 04. In 2006 the lighting system changed. I think postfacelift maybe the halogen lights look similar to the older ones, but the Xenon lights are totally different.
