07 headlights on 05

does anyone know how hard it would be to fit the 07 headlights on the 05? i would just open up the assembly and get rid of the amber reflector but i dont trust myself with an oven. i also want some halos but thats not gonna happen if im not gonna bake it. : \

I was thinking the same.... it would be cool to make it look newer. How about, you be the ginni pig, and tell me what you think? If its doable, or not.

It cannot be done with a simple swap (headlights nor taillights). The wiring is different, especially on bi-xenon models with the corona rings. And as others mentioned, the shape/dimensions are a bit different.
