Installing 07+ facelift lights on a 03-06?

I have searched multiple threads and am more confused now that when I started. Maybe you can help

I am upgrading to Gary's E63 bumper and figure it might be a good time to upgrade to the 07+ lights too.

I have the factory bi xenon option code 615 lights on my car and can't tell what it takes to install the factory 07+ xenon lights in the 03-06 cars.

Also, are the Depo lights any good? I can't find any reviews from someone who has actually used them?

Thanks for the help

I would just buy the depo headlights and then swap the lens to look the same as the 07+

I am going to give them a shot a will post a full installation write up. Fingers crossed.

I can't see taking brand new lights and swapping the lenses over to the old lights. Seems like a huge PITA. I am sure the DEPO lighting is not as good as the factory Hella lights, but it can't be THAT bad can it
