I wonder if you can buy these and swap out the plastics here in there...seems like it would be a good option to black out the interior of the lights without paining

^The bezels will fit right in, no prob but the lenses do not seat all the way down onto the OEM bases. You will need to add additional sealer around the outside edge to prevent condensation

What relay?

Inside of the HID headlight, behind the top reflector in one corner.

eagle eye and mr jdm on ebay offer a wire kit if you have HID on yours already and you buy their HID Black house. if you look up there stuff it will say to tell them if you have hid, i asked them and its like 20 bucks for the wire.

I still wonder why its JDM, when no one here makes these black headlights. should be USDM. all the black ones here are factory painted DIY...
JDM my a$$

Does it control the clearance light? I don't recall seeing any relay in my 05-06 lights, which don't have the clearance light.

I don't know if the 05/06s have them. I've only seen them in he 03/04 headlights so far. When my friend and I were doing my retrofit, he seemed to believe it was a voltage regulator used to control the H4 high/low beam. The clearance light uses a different wire.
