Firstly, welcome to Rennlist & well done for becoming a member on your first post!!
If you've got H4 lights then it should be OK, but the stock for the US is, I believe H5's, which are different. (My car is at the shop right now, but from memory, your lenses should have the type stamped on them). They also look a little different - the H5's being flush with the top of the trip ring vs. the H4's sticking out about an inch - or is it a different trim ring - can remember off the top of my head, sorry!

Here's one more pic...
...If i remember right, my headlights have the striations around/adjacent to the lens face, not the mottled/bumpy finish on yours. Thanks. I'll need to cancel my eBay bid and look at my headlight more carefully first.

The part number for a replacement headlamp unit is 911-631-909-00. The retail price is/was around $150 so if you call around you might be able to find it for half that.

Andy Roe posted what H4's look like above while Jason Andreas has posted what H5's look like, also above. 
Got my H4's (like most here, IIRC) from MS Road & Race.

I recently got a pair of H4 lenses from Pap-parts.com .Price was $ 21-49 + tax +delivery USD.Never got to speak to anyone but the service was on the button.
This was easily the best price I found .In fact one other company said that if I could get them so cheap then go for it

So is the difference worth the price? Anyone do a Xeon light conversion?-Puma
