2010 Yaris Headlight Assembly

Hello, this is my first post!

So I want to replace the headlights on my 2010 3dr Hatch with a projector setup or something, but everything for the hatch seems to be 06-08, or sedan versions.

Do equivalent year sedan versions fit the hatch? Will the 06-08 fit, or will there be stupid gaps between the assembly and the bumper cover? I've been spent a few hours searching the internets for information, but most searches just turn up page after page after page of ads.

Thank you!

MM

Sedans and hatchies do not interchange.

Typical aftermarket "projector" headlights are not an upgrade either. Most have poor projector design.


Look into a HID projector retrofit into your existing housings. About the only proper way to gain visability properly and safety

I did my retros about 8months ago. As much as I think the standard h4 housings in my sedan put out excellent light....HID projectors (im using morimoto mini h1) is NIGHT AND DAY better.

Are you on headlight junkies on FB?? (Njp440)
