Question Will these depo clear fit my 97 camry?

This isnt my car but this is how the front looks exactly:
http://www.carsales.com.au/Tig/UI/CS...alse&p=4884102

I want to install these:
http://depoautolights.com/camry-9294...d5200ce6770cee

It says the lights are for a 92-94 model but aint the shapes exactly the same or is there minor difference? I really need help on this guys, I've looked at so many places and can't find the right answers!

Will these clear headlights work with H1's and H4's? Because thats what my light bulbs are currently.

Those won't fit, unless you do a lot of modifications to the lights/vehicle, and even then I don't think it will look proper

Damn! Well you guys saved my ass at least. I was really thinking they would have fit and was planning on getting them.
Does anyone know what that thing is called on the picture of the depo headlight? On the left side, there is like a "cap" sort of thing over the lightbulb?
I need to buy one of them!! Because my passenger side has one but drivers side does not. Which makes the passenger side light go out further more while the drivers side light distributes the light all over the place instead of throwing the light out further like the passenger side headlight.
And I suspect that its because it does not have that "cap" thing.
I REALLY would love to know what that is called.

Actually the part will physically fit. (and if it doesnt you can easily swap the whole clear unit onto your black mounting bracket) From my research it appears the gen 3 camry rhd was produced from 08/1992 to 03/2001.

But their 2 problems with using those headlights. First they are for lhd cars. So the beam pattern will tilt to the wrong side of the road, meaning their will be glare for oncoming drivers and the street signs wont be illuminated as well. Second you'll need to cut the current wiring harness off your bulbs and splice on a wiring harness to use 9005/9006 bulbs. Or you could get an hid kit.

I am not 100%, but I would say it is a light deflector.

Mine was discolored on my 2000 Camry, I could be wrong but I don't think you can just buy just that part.

Anyone willing to sell theres to me? :P

I've just sent about 9 emails to different camry headlight dealers and all of them say the headlight does not come with that thing I am talking about!!!
The passenger side is a Hella brand headlight and my drivers side I think is still original factory headlight, which needs replacing but I want to find one with that "deflector" because that is what projects the light out further and evenly
I tried researching headlight deflector, reflector etc to still no luck finding anything like that.

I'm slowly coming to a dead end here!!

This guy is from aussie, so his model 97 might be different from our 97 model.
