I have a pair of black projector headlights that I bought for my 95 gst to do the 97-99 body style update with, but when I went to install them I found that the holes for the bolts didn't line up with the lights. I was able to get one of the scews in, but the light didn't fit very good with the fender. Do I have a messed up pair or is the fitment not perfect? Where can I get a pair that fits like oem?
 
Very very old post but I just ran into thie same problem. If you play around with them enough you will get them to fit. My RH side was very tricky but I loosened the fender and also removed the rubber trim from the stock headlights and reglued it to the projectors to fill in the slight gap. Always remember aftermarket parts almost never fit without some tinkering.
 
Yea well said.....aftermarket will never fit like oem....So maybe you can do what i did ...took apart the ebay projector and put the projector housing in the oem headlamp...and now my HID's are ready to go in......It took a while to figure it out and make it fit good..but in the end i came out well..... Keep in mind i already have the ebay projectors for like two years then decides to do the swap....you can buy projector housing from ebay or other places separately....
