Noob question: Replace headlight FIT 2010. Can Sport headlight be used for base model

I have a base FIT 2010 (4 door hatchback, 1.5L, etc). Recently I broke the front right headlight so I am looking to replace it.

On ebay, this is the cheapest one I can find: Headlight Headlamp Passenger Side Right RH NEW for 09-11 Honda FIT Sport | eBay

But it is for sport model. My question is can it be used in the base model? Or do I need to buy one made specifically for the base model?

Sorry for the noob question but I am not really knowledgeable about cars.

Welcome to the forum.

It can be used. But it won't match your base headlight on the driver side. The Sport for 09-11 had a chrome housing. The Base had a grey/painted housing.
