based on just looking at the rear the holes on both headlights it looks like the same size.

can we get some measurements please with out the rubber seal on the 08 lights

because it seems you can actually swap the 08 projector with relative ease.

I dunno it really looks like you could modify a 9006 to fit in there no problem, but we'll have to wait and see.

I did. They're coming in on Friday and being installed over the weekend. I got the H11 HID bulbs in last week so I should have everything ready.

Well, since I did buy two sets from Josh, I didn't get both of them today. I will get them tomorrow.

Oh, and I ripped into FedEx.

So you want to get a set of 08 head lights and take out the projectors and fit them into the 05-07 lights? I can't see why you would take the time to do this. Just seems like alot of extra work. Oh and the seals are exactly the same for all years and have the same part #.

Probably since it's just in the high beam now. It stays on in the 05-07s.

To answer anyone's question, the plastic piece that is extra on the bottom comes off when you use needle nose pliers and pull both of the clamps. Yay! Thank you Josh and Ken. TRD Sparks are the best!
