They'll fit, but in order to get them to work, you'll have to undergo an H4 conversion and swap the corner sockets with an additional pair of bumper light sockets and use different corner bulbs. So there is some basic electrical wiring and soldering required.

Yes, just goto any Kragen, Autozone or other auto parts store and get H4 headlight sockets. There is a diagram drawn by BLUEMEANIE floating around on here somewhere you can find by searching that will show you how to wire them up properly. As for additional bumper light turn signal connectors, you can go to any junk yard and clip them from any 93-97 Corolla.

Yes, it's something that is easily doable yourself. As long as you are good with connecting wires and have basic soldering knowledge you'll do fine.

No problem.

All the info you need has been covered in past threads so the answers are just a search away.

What are the additional bumper light sockets for? Do you have a pic of what they look like?

To hook up the corner lights, assuming that they don't come with the proper connections included already. Those are replicas of the authentic JDM Toyota headlights which have the same setup.

Just unscrew and pull out your stock bumper turn signals and you can see what they look like.

The same procedure would be required for both.

If you get those lights, you will also need a new grille, since the US one is rounded on the outside, but those lights are flat. If you want pretty much the same look, without any wiring or grille problems, get these:
