Does anyone know if the fenders are identical between 82215743AC and 82215742AC (besides the lights)? I live in Japan and have the export Rubicon which comes with the same fender flares as a Sport and nobody here sells the LED Rubicon High Top Fenders, nor am I willing to pay DHL $4000 to ship them. I can get the halogen version, but can I simply swap the lights between them? Since the halogen version cost $1400 here, I don't want to buy them just to find out they are different.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that, thanks.. If I can't just move my existing LED lights over, I could still buy them separately from the states. Sucks that for me to get a $480 part from the US is going to now cost $1700. But my question still stands will the LED fender lights (from a US Rubicon) fit into the non-led version of hightop fenders?

I still haven't addressed this on mine. My concern is the that the halogen and leds may be different widths. I don't know if they are, but he Rubi's LED flares are 1" wider so I'm guessing so is the light. I do know the lights can be taken out and replaced, just not sure of switching between halogen and led. For me, I found that the Rubicon flares are illegal here in Japan where I live, as the headlight can't be more than 40cm (15 inches from the outermost part of the vehicle, so I'm not sure I'm ever going to do this.
