I believe the main reason is to match the chrome around the refreshed front end grilles.

You might be able to trade with someone when they get their 2005. Sounds like the chrome headlights are a bit too much chrome for some people.

I believe it's been determined that the headlights are slightly different in size on the 2005's, and wont fit the earlier front-ends. This is just based on eyesight, however, and hasn't been checked with actual equipment.

I'm pretty sure they didnt change the headlamps except for the chrome. We have an 05 where I work and they dont look any different.
