Lexus es 330 interchanging headlights tail lights and grill?

i have an 04 lexus es 330 and i think i might need to change my headlights out because they have a bit of oxidation the items ive tried would not get it all off so i think its best to swap them, money isnt an option. but i really like the 05-06 headlights better than the 04 headlights, they look very similar in size and shape would it be possible to use 06 or 05 headlights instead of the 04 type. if ima go n do the headlights what about the tail lights and the grill?? Will they fit?? also does anybody have aftermarket wheels on their es330 or know where i can view one with aftermarket wheels. I hardly can find any pics online of one with OEM wheels.

The 04 Lexus ES headlights where most likley the Halogen yellow headlights found on your everyday car. If you want you could opt for the Lexus Factory Bi-xenon headlights which look better and illuminate the road brighter, they replicate the light you would see during the day. Incase you dont know what Xenon headlights are they have a white-ish blue-ish Hue to them which are found in almost every modern or luxury car today like BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Audi and Mercedes. The 05-06 ES models offered the %26quot;Lighting package%26quot; which included Bi-xenon headlights for the old generation Lexus ES. Try buying the factory lights from Lexus, if you just purchase the xenon bulbs they will look...well...ghetto on a Lexus. Try buying the retrofit factory Xenon headlights for the 04 Lexus ES. I would not recommend you purchase a used headlight off Ebay, its better to pay the full price so you can recieve the 1-5 year warranty. The 2005-2006 ES headlights should fit a 2004 ES model, seek proffesional help when installing and you may need an HID kit, ask an autoshop or your Lexus dealer for a quote (Pics below)



(Do not purchase used, but here is the headlight you are looking for. They are for the 2004 Lexus ES330, Bi-xenon prejector Headlight, :::::These are in Used condition::::::)

I agree with John completely if you are considering changing your headlights but have you tried removing the oxidation on them? An $8 bottle of Mequiars PlastX, a soft cloth and 3-5 applications w/ a little elbow grease on the headlights might be all that you need to restore your headlights. There are also other restoration kits out there that might do an even better job for less than $20. Good luck.
