I really doubt there's a difference, but dont take my doubts as a $1-2k investment that will 100% work. haha hopefully someone else will chime in. I could see the AFS being different (since drive and passenger side angles differently) but 2011+ headlights dont have AFS.

I'm thinking of getting them too. Make sure you get the RHD version, the cut-off shield in the projector is different than in the US (different light pattern). I believe the US versions have that little orange light (side marker?) that we don't have in Europe and UK so the wiring must be a little bit different but nothing major. The connectors are identical but probably different pin-outs. No idea how much they cost though, I'll ring my Lexus garage and ask out of curiosity.
