think you would need the rear bumper to as the shape of the lights are differant

Search it on here. Someone on here did it in the last 6 months with pics. yes you need the blobeye bumper and brackets etc to do a perfect job.

EDIT> Yes the lights do fit without changing the rear bumper with light tinkering, but the circle bit at the bottom sticks out past the bumper a little bit.

I'm sure I've read someone has done it whilst keeping the original bumper

The blob lights will fit with the bug bumper - there's a little foam pad under the round bit at the bottom that needs to be ripped off, but otherwise it's a straight swap
