Question Headlight Swap Question!!!

I have someone who is going to let me swap whatever parts I want to from my 03 coupe with her 06 coupe. I'm definitely getting the tail lights... I really want to get the headlights also. Does anyone know if I can just simply swap them or will the ballasts be different... or will there be any other problems??
Thanks for the help!

1. Lucky; nice deal
2. If they are the same color you could also get the sport front bumper too! lol
3. To answer your actual question about the headlight, yes you can completely plug-n-play swap them. The ballasts are the same, so you dont even need to unscrew them from the headlight. Just swap the headlight itself.
4. The reason I mentioned the front bumper thing is that you have to take the front bumper almost all the way off to get to the headlights anyway

np, taking off the headlights is the easy part too. just 4 bolts with a 10mm socket. also make sure you have a long screwdriver to be able to unclip the car's harness from the headlight... that part is tough the first time you do it.

but getting the front bumper pulled out of the way to get to the lights is the part that really takes the longest.
