yes, it will fit, but WHY IN THE WORLD would you replace your stock HIDs, which are excellent quality and lighting, with those cheaply-made projectors that provide even worse lighting than the stock 00-01 halogens??

If you don't wanna donate... there are instructions in the Stickies for how to do a forum search using Yahoo or Google.... its under the link "Search Before You Post..." or something...

Btw... if ya really wanna do those eBay projectors... its your car and your money... but the light output is pathetic compared to the stock HIDs... like everyone said... the DDEs from Umnitza would look much classier and since you're already cracking em HIDs open to stick the DDEs in, ya might as well paint the inside of the housing black so that it'll look more "projector like" as many here have done. I personally would never swap my stock HIDs for the eBay projectors. Do I wanna be different? Of course... but its not worth it when it comes to those suckers...

However, there are people on here who have done it and seem to do okay with em... although I can't think of any who went from 02-03 HIDs to projectors... most had 00-01 headlights....

im saving you from yourself platinum. smoke and clear your headlights, add the angel eyes from Umnitza (DDEs) and you have the look of those ebay headlights with the performance of the OEM HIDs.




plus, i just LOVE my damn headlights like that

I personally like ebay projectors better (the way they look). If i find a way to stick an HID kit in there, my mission here will be complete... ...well, after transmission swap... ...ummm, maybe after a turbo
