Hi friends ,

We have just bought a 2011 DB9 for my brother ,
the only thing that annoys us is the HEADLIGHT !
Do you think we can replace them with 2013 DB9's headlights ?

Not unless you want to replace the front wings also. The Virage style lights are way longer than the regular DB9 style, and IMO, they are not as nice as the originals.

Keep the original look...it's the original DB9 chassis and body design and was the original Gaydon era version pre-Virage update.

The car is still beautiful but the facelift headlights would make it fresher

You can always keep your pre facelift lights and go custom to get the exact look you want with high end LEDs.

it will not make fresher, it will make it look as though you are trying to make it something that it is not. It's an original DB....it's perfect the way it is

Even if you make the necessary body adjustments, The wiring is different for the new DB9/Rapide/virage/vanquish headlights, they have a round plug. Not sure if the headlight wiring for the car is available on its own. It normally comes as a loom.
You would need to work out which pins did what and adjust the wiring on your car. Could be done, but not easily.
