meant to ask if 2009 headlights interchange to the 2012 year. the lights are on www.projecttuninglab.com they say 2009-2010 but I need to know if there any subtle differences that will make them not fit the 2012 base model. it's the best price ive seen on them so far $335 base price and with all the upgrades and 1 year warranty it brings them just under $500. they come black or chrome inside

Just curious... What upgrades? For that much you could do a really nice retro...

except the retro would be a bug eyed headlight.

~~~~~~~~~~

in any case, not all the "upgrades" are needed. warning canceler is pointless, since the Fit doesn't have anything to cancel. the only potential is the DRL, but then, the high beam bulb would take care of that, since it's still halogen allowing it to work as normal (or pull the DRL fuse if you don't want it to work). That's $30.

the "upgrade" to CCFL is personal choice. $36

and obviously, the 1 year warranty is also a personal choice: $50
^- personally, i think it's pointless. you could buy crappy HID kits for $50, that last a year too! Now, if it were a 5 year warranty, it'd be a different story.

the overall total would've been $451 (with all upgrades), unless they're charging tax (s&h is free).

I have the headlights that came out just before this (difference being the orange side reflector that I'm missing).

2012 fit base

i didn't plan on the canceler, just the warranty cause the standard is 30 days. how mad would you be to drop 400 and the leds die out in 2 months. main reason i want these are the leds look similar to the '13 accord. my parts wish list is 10k. supercharger, air ride, tsw trackstar 4 wheels, grille, emblem on the rear. realisticly ill probably only do wheels and cosmetics cut it down to 3k, excluding interior mods. (dvd head unit and 1 sub)
