Lamin-X Headlight Film Question

I just ordered headlight film from Lamin-x for my incoming Mini. Although I usually read things pretty carefully, I ordered the set for the headlights without power washers, not realizing that the Xenon lights comes with power washers (I assumed that they came on the cold weather package).

Long story short - I have the set for non Xenon headlights - are there any differences other than the washer that would prevent me from using this pre cut film? Should I exchange it or is it something that I can accommodate with an X-acto knife?

It is going to be difficult to get are really smooth curve in exactly the right place with an X-acto knife. I'd exchange them.

I put these on my MCS with Xenon lights. I put them on wet and used a heat gun to help mold them to the curve of the light lens.
