    Is there a particular reason you want to get those headlights? If you're a DIY person, you could open up your stock headlights, black them out with paint like the ones you posted and install the halos/angel eyes/DDEs at the same time... This could be achieved all for under $100.

    If you don't know DIY means, then probably you should buy a set. DIY stands for Do It Yourself. DDEs is just another way to call the halos. Stands for daylight demon eyes. Or some people also call them Angel Eyes. Unless, by halos, you mean projector headlights?

    02-04 and 05-06 headlights are different. I am 99.9% positive those headlights you posted are for the 02-04. The 05+ headlight side marker doesn't go all the way up the side of the light and the turn signal housing is clear.

    Yes, there are different shaped headlights from 02-04 compared to 05-06. Technically they should fit but you're have big gaps around the grill, hood and bumper since the lights are different.

    Actually looking at them again, I think he did post 02-04 headlights. The 05-06 headlights have a sharp angled bump at the triangle where the hood meets the grill and headlight.

    Here is the 2002-04, its a bit more smooth at the triangle
    head lights 0777-043-headlight-480


    Here is the 2005-06, has a larger angle at the triangle
