2013 headlight conversion to my 2011
I was wondering if the 2013 headlights would fit my 2011 rx350 and would I need to change the harness or anything like that? Does anyone have experience w it? Anything I need to know or do before I pick these bad boys up. I got someone wanting to sell me a pair for 1100.

The headlight shape is different. The front bumper needs to be also changed and brackets. Simple wiring for leds.

Dad's 2010 RX350 just got hit. Passenger fender, headlight and bumper are all damaged. I am pushing for the 2013 front end and it looks like the grill also needs to be changed. Unless the 2013 grill is built straight into the bumper? Is it just bumper, head lights, and brackets that need to be replaced for this conversion to work?

I would let your repair shop know that you would like to buy the 2013 parts instead of 2010; the shop should be able to covert it and may or may not charge you for some smaller parts that maybe not covered. I personally don't think it will be not hard for a repair shop to swap it.
^ if in fact it was JUST a facelift, the parts should bolt up, unless lexus changed the dimensions of the rad support, which would change the mounting point of the top bolt in the headlight housing...
