I am looking to replace the headlights on my 00 LX and I was wondering if all the years are compatible or if they changed with the grille/bumper redesign? I really like how the newer ones have a bluish tint to them.

Also, the tint is green, not blue.

Tint aside, there's a big difference in the long term performance. My GS430 suffers from the hazing effect that happens over time to the plastic headlights. The constant weather exposure and tiny debris hitting the lens "hazes" the plastic lenses. It spreads my HID beam out a bit; might even be blocking some of the lumens but not enough to be worrisome.
You'll get pit or pock marks in glass as well but it is much more resistant to small debris. Glass also doesn't haze.
