GT86 Headlights

Does anybody know if it is possible to install the HID headlights that come with the GT86 on an FR-S ?

well, for the future, you can learn that other than the interior components and firewall to physically change where the steering wheel and pedals are for LHD/RHD, there is absolutely nothing different between the base components of the fr-s, gt86, and brz.

Well, main lights more then probably should be different for RHD & LHD, as lightbeams on different sides of car should be focused/limited differently, to iluminate better road signs but to not blind oncoming traffic. That aside there were many EUDM LHD GT86. GT86 isn't something JDM/UKDM/AUDM limited.
