Default Will this fit?

Hello;


Will the 05-06 Lexus ES300 headlights fit into my 2002 Lexus ES300?

Or would it require cutting and etc..?

Thanks!

thanks for the answer! I'm looking for more input from other people as well. I want to be sure that the 05-06 headlights will fit in my 2002 lexus, before I go spending a lot of money on them.


I'm actually now looking at a nice pair of CCFL Halo Projector Lights..

If anyone can find better? That'd be great, preferably black housing!

Just need to be sure they fit :-P

Another addition to the question.

This is where I'm getting my idea from. This is a cardomain page of a 2002 Lexus ES 300 that I found, and I'm inspired to do the same thing.

He has 05-06 lights in his 02 car.

This is why I'm baffled.

the 05-06 headlight bucket should fit the 2002. Beware that there are four bolts that hold the bucket in and one of them is under the fender. Meaning you have to remove the fender or get up under the fender to get at the fourth bolt. Several members have done it.

Also keep in mind that if you switch to the 05-06 projector then you have to swap out your HID bulds too. The 2002 reflector dish style HID uses a D2R bulb and the 2005-06 projector set up uses a D2S bulb.
