Default conclusion to swap 08 headlights on a <07 model

Ya sorry for making a new post for this but the last few were somewhat confusing ok i read all the stuff on a 08 TC with the projector headlights. there was alot so i just wanted a conclusion on everything. From what i read the LB is a H11 bulb, HB is a 9005 bulb. to get the LBs to work i have to cut the female terminal coming from the car and solder on the H11 connection. are there any more things that have to be done so it is a good fit. And where can i get the headlights from?

Theyve allready said theres adapters to keep from splicing, and if you choose to go HID, you get an adapter anyway.

Like it was said ^^ Until a swap is done, were all guessing in the dark.
