Smile Fitment difference between 01-03 and 04-05 headlight

As title states, my headlight becomes very foggy. i am trying to replace my 03 sport design headlight with 04-05 sport design. I was told by the seller it will only fit 04-05 model.
however, i compare the pic of headlights to mine. they just look identical the same. The most aftermarket headlight on Ebay will fit model year from 01-05. Then why can this 04-05 sport design headlight fits my 03 sportdesign.
If anybody knows the answer? Thanks for your time.

The 03 headlight has a dark housing with a bluish tint i believe, and the 04-05 is a matte black housing. it is a small but noticeable difference
