86 lights won't fit on a BRZ unless you cut the inside corner. BRZ lights will fit on the 86 but you will need to fill the inside corner.

might be. if you look at the photos the angles at which they were taken were slightly different, that could be the reason for the confusion.

i remember reading an article somewhere that they are physically identical.. but i'm not sure if they were stating that out of fact or pure speculation.

I don't know I kinda like the 86 hid headlights, if scion does not offer them as an option then I will go with the BRZ hid lights. They can't be that expensive...it's not like it would be wrong to do it since both cars are like the same.

Oh, and the '05 and '06 models were identicle except the lights so it was a simple plug and play swap.

It looks the lights are the same, but the BRZ bumper has a "pocket" for the inside corner of the light.

Yeah, figured they'd be pretty steep. The ones for the G35 were $750 and I got those in a group buy from a dealer for a great price. They were just the plastic housing/assemblies! Car parts just cost an arm and a leg.

Thought about the swap also as i much prefer the BRZ's hid but seems like the inside corner of the housing's are different.
