Default Q: Differences between 93~95 and 95~97 headlights

Tried to seach, but no luck...

I need to buy a set of USDM Lexus headlights with DOT-marks for my Aristo to get the car registered here in Finland (Europe). Toyota here offers two kinds of USDM headlights from year 93 to around 95 and a "facelift" ones from 95 to 97. Do you guys happen to know if there are any differences in these two headlights with different part numbers?

The Aristo is 1991 year model.

TIA,

/nr000001

I don't think there is a difference. Only with the tail lights.

Hmm, interesting. Maybe I´ll just order the later ones which are also cheaper for some reason. (= Easier way would be to buy a set of euro headlights, but I prefer USDM as they are one piece like JDM ones.

Anyone willing to trade USDM to JDM?

Thanks for your help.

It seems to me that USDM headlights look better than JDM. Lookining for a nice pair of USDMs anyway..... hey nr000001, can a get a number or address to that Toyota Dealer? Post PICS for each year if you can.
