    they will fit but you would have to mod them ino the stock foglight assembly, you can get similar ones cheaper thoi have a set sitting in my basement i had when i had my cyber 1 i think i got for like 40 shipped

    to mount those, you would either have to attach them straight to the bumper or make a custom bracket so that they could bolt onto the stock foglight assemblies.

    foglights make awful headlights. the beam pattern and spread is much different.

    i think he's using aftermarket projectors made for other cars. foglights do not thow light as far as headlights and have a much wider dispersion... fogs are great for foreground and side lighting but not optimal for a headlight which must throw much further in a more focused beam. converslely, driving lights or pencil beams shoot much further but do not have a very wide angle. think of a focused maglite where all the light is in the center (spot) as opposed to a maglight where the beam has been focused out to shine on a large area (flood).

    Like relax said, these are set up for fog lights with a short, wide beam. You can tell that the optics with these fog lights are different because of how the lens is shaped. The lens on the fog lights sticks out a lot further than a headlight projector, which is a more of a shallow dome.

    In theory i guess you could swap the lens on these with some headlight projector lenses. But then you just be better off buying the headlight projectors.
