How To Tell?

I want to replace my headlight with OEM BiX, how can you tell from just the look of it rather it's for the sedan or coupe? Please help, pictures will be even better.

what car you have? coupes BiX look longer than regular sedans. and usually it is much harder to obtain, so if you see anything on ebay, it will most likely be for sedans.

sedan:
these aren't OEM bix, but they closely resemble it in terms of design


powa's coupe:

ok, I know the one I got is for sedan. thanks for the help guys. do the Bi-X have a shelf life? the only reason I ask is because it'll be another year and a half before I can put them on the car.
