Question new headlights

So the 2001+ headlamp assemblies go on the older style models without any problems? Im considering swapping mine out and also doing the HID retrofit at the same time. What are your experiences with the headlamp assemblies?

thanks

Jason

I know for a fact the rear lights can be switched... And I don't think they did any changes to the headlights besides switch the inside of the housings.. So I think your good to go.. Has anyone else done this before?? Can someone shed some light on this??

i just swapped some 2002 headlights into my 1999 RX with no problems, all in all it took about 2-3 hours, as soon as my tail lights come in i will post pics of both, man i can tell you the new headlights are worth it, it makes a big difference, i lightens up the whole front end

Disco,

Where'd you end up getting the 2002 headlights?
How much (with delivery)?
