#1: search: all the answers you'll ever need...but yes, the lights for the 05-07's will fit for an 08 too...

#2: do NOT buy cheap ebay lights. Most of them look like crap (and typically are), and will fog up and burn out in no time.

they'll fit but double check the bulbs. for the headlights, 04-07 lows are 9006 while 08+ are h11. not sure if there're any differences in the tails.
and stock > aftermarket, both in looks and quality.

tails are the same on all years, but you'll have to modify the headlight harness due to you have h11 and the connecter is different, but why would you want to get rid of the stock headlights, tails i can understand but you'll be foolish to sell the stock headlights, they hold up longer then aftermarket and look great, just use that money and get a nice set of hid's

Are the eagle eyes led tail lights from ebay any good? I'm planning to buy a set. I like how they look.

they should be fine; worst case (like some of the xB lights) you just reseal a little around the edges.

Like said above factory beats aftermarket if given the option. As far as '08 to '05-'07 you might have some issues with wiring from what I heard. Do a quick search about 06->08 headlights and it will have the info you will just need to do it in reverse! GL!

I went from 08 heads and tails to 07's. You'll have to solder a 9006 harness where the H11 harness is if you go that route, but it's super easy to do.
