You have to cut your headlight bracket

or buy a pair of 2012 brackets which then would be direct fit.

It's not a bulb it's an LED which you can't take out. The best thing to do is get some black tape open up the cluster and block the light from the inside so it does not shine through.

so those parts number are the one for the new headlights to fit the older bumper like 06-08? all three screws and the brackets line up perfectly with the headlights and bumper? so how much is it cost? thanks quang fro the parts number

The brackets are factory OEM 2012 headlight brackets (sewell sells those too), not specifically made for sewell LED headlight on sale here. and yes, all 3 screws and little tabs on the headlight near the screws line up 100%. I did not want to do the cutting, and bought a used bracket to try out, and turned out to be perfect fit on my 06 bumper
The pic shows why the cutting is not needed if using 2012 bracket

BUT, do the fronts of the "Front Bumper Support" brackets lock into the 2006-2010 bumper tabs and hold the bumper into place correctly ???
Thats the key question..

Got my headlights in!
They're just wired the default way for now. Will get in there later and change it to full time DRL. Though still undecided whether I want it to dim with low beams.... hmm....

What can I say Sango, I'm a rebel.
Naah... too much work. And also I'm so used to the plate on now anyway.
Industrial Park in Burnaby (near the Vancouver border) just off Marine.
Need to take that front plate off..!!
Somewhere in Vancouver?!

I thought I recognized the area somewhere but couldn't pin point where. For one thing, the theme of the lamp post didn't quite seem like Vancouver to me while it did resemble other places in BC, such as Burnaby.
