I know that's not very useful, but it might be a case of try it and see.

I thought that there MUST be an easier way but at the end it didn't bother me too much- any other replacements are likely to come from an IS300 (aftermarket) and the work is already done. You can get it to fit just be prepared for the work....or have a shop do it for you.
Note: You don't have to alter the visible outer portion of the fender- just the brackets on the inside.

03-02-2023, 08:03 AM #7I did it before, its not a graceful process...I had to cut a piece of the new headlights off at the lower outer corners and then hammer the brackets/mounting points on the fenders so they sit further into the car. The IS200 headlight mounting point will cause the entire headlight to protrude about an inch away from where it should be.
