Sure they will. They are the same housings that are on the Protege ES.

You'll need to change wiring harness for it though. As the ones you are talking about only have single lamp. Whereas the P5 has dual.

Care to make a trade?

Yeah. I'd say to each his own. If you like the single lamp black housing better, go for it.

Why don't you just heat up the lights, break the seal, take the housing out and paint it black. It looks amazing. It's not the easiest job but you will def. love it. You can use the the same procedure in reverse to put them back. I also recommend a bead of sealant aroun the edge to make sure no moisture gets in.

Re

Why have a homemade light when I can have OEM quality. Wiring is easy, I am also throwing on HIDs as well.

I have a yellow P5, Yellow Corbeau seats, gun metal Axis Seven wheels, KYB Shocks, Ground Control Coil overs, HKS Hyper exhaust, carbon fiber hood, Wings West kit, soon to have a turbo kit.

What do you have as your rear bumper on the WW kit. I'd love to see a pick.

I will when ever I get my digital camera from Sony. Had to send it to them for a warranty repair. 3 weeks now without it.
