more than likely they are but you do realize you will have to break apart the sealant that holds your headlights together to install these right?

There's a chance your lights will fog up.

Well, if you do the lens re-assembly properly, and put a thin additional layer of clear silicone around the joint, it should be good, that's all i did when I installed my angel eyes and they haven't fogged up on me.

Yep... clear silicone. Don't worry about having it overflow because it will not be seen on the edges. Seal it up well!
