Is Gen2 headlights and Gen1 headlights are the sames?
I found many projector headlights on Ebay for Gen 1 but none for Gen2 even those Gen 2 has been 4 years old model.
On some website, I saw they put the link to Gen 2 headlights the same as Gen 1 picture so not sure if they are the same.
Thanks,

The rewire is not an issue to me but I was worry about the fitment.
If they fit, then it would be fine.
Can anyone please confirm again that the housing would be the same?
Thanks,

short of checking real oem for a part number change which seems likely
what you really want is someone who tried it huh?
Haha, not really ... since it's been 4 years so just want to double check to make sure I buy a set and they will fit. They are $300 but $300 is still $300. Don't want to buy them and cannot use it.
Thanks,

They are COMPLETELY different. Gen 1 mounts on the hood while Gen 2 do not. Wiring, bulbs, ballasts, ignitors ALL different and not interchangeable.
Same with Non Xenon... even the bulbs are not interchangeable
So in other words.... if the parts doesnt notate the year of your car, then its more likely to not fit?? Im looking to purchse some projector headlights for my clubman.... cant really find one that indicates it for a clubman
