Default Can 2010 - 2012 Headlights be used on a 2008

The bowls of the halogen projectors are shot. Light output is nearly non-existent. The turn signals are much brighter. The only solution will be new headlights. High beams are fine. No, the lenses aren't the problem.

It seems pretty difficult to find '07-'09 aftermarket headlights, but the 2010-2012 seem to be readily available.

Has anyone successfully installed them? I'd prefer the look of the original, but I'd value useable light output above all else.

I ruled out electrical issues. The bulbs are fine. There is just near-zero reflectance from within the projector bowl.
