What's the difference between 2000-2001 and 2002-2003 headlights?
Looking to get a set of headlamps for my 2000 AP1, and noticed that Honda has different part codes for the 2000-2001 and 2002-2003 headlights. Searched on the forum, but couldn't find an answer. Does anyone know what the differences are and do the 2002-2003 headlamps fit the 2000 (HID ballasts and all)?

The first years have a sharper cut off for the xenon light beam. They tend to suddenly blind oncoming traffic when going over slight bumps. Honda redesigned the cutoff on the later lights to be more gradual to not suddenly blind oncoming traffic. From experience, people used to always think I was flashing my high-beams at them.
