Sorry, I don't. Those headlights are different size from the North American Fits.

smeister... I am thinking of retrofitting my heads but i don't know anyone in Australia who does it. ALSO i need to ask.. because we get the JDM "jazz/fits" isit possible to put an fx35 retrofit in the JDM headlights or isit strictly made for the USDM versions?.. Let me know man. Cheers!

I can't say for sure, but I would think that the FX35 should fit since the headlights are just a bit shorter but the rear reflector bowl area seems to be similar. Best thing is to just open the headlight and see if it will fit. Check out my DIY Retrofit guide and you can get an idea. Hope that helped.

Thanks man...probably a good idea to buy a spare set for a good price and then try taking the headlight apart...it's really not that hard. I did it the first time on my Honda Fit. Just make sure its warm enough so the butyl comes apart easily when you pull it apart.

Hahaha i do have a spare one.. well actually the original headlights ARE my spare ones, since im using some aftermarket headlights atm. I got these lights cheap.. and of course you get what you pay for. haha one of the angel eye is falling off, and i also want to upgrade to HID, i went to a few places here and they said they wouldnt touch aftermarket stuff because they usually use glues that can't be opened and resealed without destroying the area's affected... so my other option is to muck around with my OEM headlights sitting on the shed atm.. I really like the fx35 projector look and intensity, and from what u can say u can also add angel eyes onto them which is all i want. But my problem now is i don't have anyone to do it for me, and second even if i have a guy to do it for me i would have to most likely provide the projectors. So i've got abit of a dilemma haha, you wouldnt be interested in overseas service? I'll pay the neccesary excess fee if thats what you're worried about.

For the aftermarket headlights you can probably use butyl to reseal it so you should be ok. I dont think it will be cost effective for me to do it and I can't guarantee the cutoff to be perfect without fitting it on a jdm fit.

Cheapest is probably ebay or whatever craigslist type of deal you have in Australia. I am not sure if you guys even get the FX35 over there. If anything I have FX35 ballasts, igniters, and bulbs I can probably part with. hmmm just look local first and if you cant find anything hit me up.

I can assemble the project and bowl, but there is more work involved than just that to get it retrofitted into your headlights.

It's probably been done...just search the forums and the internet. It can't be that hard.
