Lights from 2008-09 into 2005 model

Hi

I have just got some projector headlights from a 2008-09 model they are non Xenon lights as I got them bit cheap so went for non xenon and going to fit xenon kit into it that way it will work out cheap , Hopefully..
Are these lights straight swap or do I need to do any additional connections/wiring as they are non xenon I would of thought it should be same wiring as I have got in my 2005 model ease correct me if I'm wrong.
Is there any How to guide on theses headlights??

Cheers..

Since 2005 and 2010 are not even the same models, not sure how you're gonna make them fit.

Sorry, for some reason, this post got cross posted to the E85/E86 forum.

I'll go hide under a rock now.
