I would not recommend them. The Beam patterns on them are pretty f*&^ed up. If you want projectors, I would retrofit some in my stock housing if I were you.

Do the 02-03 direct fit or is there modfication needed.
And where can I find a set?

If I were you I would get the ebay projectors and have a good set of projectors reto-fit into them. I was going to get the 02-03 HID's however, they are the worst OEM HID you can get. Its up to you, I would take the time to do it right and have projectors put into either your stock headlamps or into the ebay ones.

EDUT: look at this website for some retro ideas. http://hidtech.com/

You are a bama Chris, don't you have a 4th gen? What are you going to do with 5.5gen angel eye headlights anyway give them to me for Christmas??? Cuz I know your not going to "retrofit" them to your POS

Dr. Roy is the man when it comes to projectors, if your trying to get me some then I suggest you only get me the best from him.
