1999-2000 headlamps are about 5mm shorter in width, and 3mm shorter in height at the bottom.

If you want a perfect fit, you should also obtain a 2001-2005 bumper. If you choose to retain a 1999-2000 bumper, you will need a small rotary tool to shave a some of the bumper away where the amber signal lense is. You will be left with a small gap below the headlamp and bumper. Most people are not able to notice this, but discerning car enthusiasts will notice it.

The 1999-2000 headlamps use two headlamp connectors. One for the turn signal/parking lamp, and one for the H4 Hi/Low beam.

2001-2005 headlamps use three connectors. The signal/parking lamp is exactly the same and may be carried over. The low beam is the outer projector lamp and uses a 9006 bulb and requires a 9006 wiring harness. The high beam is the center bulb and uses a 9005 bulb harness. You will need to splice these into the existing, single harness.

1999-2000 bulb harnesses have three wires, you'll notice the middle one is thickest and will be shared by both bulbs. The 9005 and 9006 bulbs do not have polarity, so for each wiring harness, connect one to the thin wire, and one to the thick wire. You may choose to cut and solder the wires, but the very easiest way to easily connect them quickly is to use spade connectors crimped on the wire harnesses and plug them directly into the OEM harness.
