Not OEM...

The headlights you bought are halogen. If your car is not a base model, they are not going to work.

Yea swap the harness. I had to do that when I bought '06 headlights because the person that had them originally swapped them into his 03-05 BASE and I had a touring which used the same harness as the '06.

Kinda a PITA if you don't know what you're doing...which I didn't. I had a friend do it lol.

Well that's the only way I'd think but considering these aren't OEM I have no idea if that would work. I went from OEM to OEM.
