The taillights will probably need to be repinned and spliced into a USDM connector.

Headlights will not have the correct cutoff and you'll just end up blinding oncoming traffic here.

Repinning is fine. I can do all the necessary testing to figure out which pins is what, etc.

Headlights can be adjusted can’t they?

Then I say go for it if you really want those taillights.

The only way to "adjust" a RHD headlight is to take it apart, and maybe flip the cutoff the other way. If that's not possible, then you would have to retrofit another set of LHD projectors (I'd look at the Retrofit Source for that).

Crap, it didn’t even occur to me that Hybrid models are probably RHD... hmm. Does that mean one headlight aims differently than the other? I thought they were more or less aimed the same way? What is this “cutoff” exactly?

I’m not necessarily wanting the headlights because they are projectors, I like them overall with the integration of the LEDs, etc.
