Default Differences in Au1-Au2/3 headlights

Hey guys,
Looking at aftermarket chrome Fairmont style headlights for my series 1 au ute.
Do the au2 chrome headlights fit as direct replacement?
I think they look better than the 'silver' ones but I don't want to fork out $177 and find out I've got nothing to fit them to!
Sorry if I'm repeating a previous thread. Any help would be appreciated.

Note also that AU II orange indicator was model dependant - e.g. Forte, Ute and ??? are clear.

I put these on my AU II Ute after a 'roo jumped on the bonnet. Were $90 each back in September.

Thanks guys. After I did a bit more hunting I realized they should fit. Just didn't want to buy them and not have them fit. I know I'll have to get globes and such, that's not a worry. Do LED globes work well as indicators?
