03 Headlight housings in a 05?

I have the chance to get everything..... The housings with bulbs, tilt motors, harnesses, and switchs. How hard is this swap? Plug and play or do i need more?

You mean you want to install 03 OEM HID headlights? well you will also need the complete wiring from the 03 car (fusebox, with cable going to headlights, and cable going to the cabin for leveling switch and fog light switch) unless I am missing something and you already have an OEM HID equipped evo, but them I would not understand why install 03 housings?

Nope i currently dont have HID's, Would I also need the engine and complete wiring harness or just the harness for the HID's and Foglights with the fuse box. Im guessing that the rest of my stuff will plug into the 03 Fusebox, my only concern is that i have ACD since mine is a 05 and the 03 did not. Just want to make sure that the 03 fusebox will work with all that.

thanks

I think you will only need the fusebox with harness to HID and FOGS, not the entire engine harness... now I wonder about the ACD, never thought of that sorry

you dont need a the fusebox and harness. just splice and have a male connector(for the harness) to connect with the female connector of the headlight. hid headlight will work but fogs wont.
