I'm pretty sure they will fit but you won't be able to use the 5.5 gen bulb/balast setup the wiring won't work. You will need to get a hid kit for whatever bulb the 01 uses and go from there. Here is a thread with some more info.zerothread?id=307742

Your best bet is to just get HID's for your car.
