I don't see why it shouldn't fit. How much did you pay for them?

I think you may need a new hood and perhaps other bits.

Just got it installed and it fits perfectly. I paid 430 cash no tax on each headlight. Looks much better. I got this headlight because i had leds on eyebrows and burnt my plugs and the chrome part of the headlights. by the way the led's i've had were from ijdmtoy..

Good to hear, sorry you had to purchase new headlights. Should have stuck with the forums own Azn_c300 leds, I have had them in for about 6months now with no problems.

BTW, what are you going to do with the old housings?

I actually bought the leds way before azn started selling leds.. if he had it long time ago, i would have definetly bought his instead of spending double from ijdmtoy.
