Yup, about going rate, flip side the facelift once piece one's are worth peanuts, if you split them and sprayed the inside bits could work?

Is it simple to split them? I've not taken them off to have a look.

Same as doing the rears, there's a guide somewhere, and I think JayJay has split his to fit projectors for his HID's, worth asking him

Oven on max,
headlight in oven with oven off for 7mins
Remove and pry he headlights apart with screwdriver.
Then sell and get a 5th Gen. 8-)

Why do you want the JDM headlights though? Just the look of one continuous sweeping headlight?

IMH(UKDM)O - the UK headlights are superior in build than the JDM's being a good solid glass product from Stanley.

Appreciate that looks and I guess weight win for some.

I've already got the JDM lights on mine but its the post facelift ones, I just prefer the pre facelift ones and a one piece unit
