Yes it's been done before

I think the wires were different and the harness needed cutting and rewiring Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Hi, Did you manage to get anywhere fitting your new led headlights, thinking of doing it myself but are unsure of wiring?

Look up a member called Chalkey. He fitted the 2013 front and rear lights to his 2012 model. It is an expensive job though, it cost him over £1000.

Hi

I've just done it and posted my "experiences" here:

http://www.freel2.com/forum/post196515.html#196515

Having done it, I'm very happy and I can report that my misgivings over the reduction in light output were unfounded. I would recommend it if you can find a pair of lights for a reasonable price.

That's a great guide but looks way too much hassle for me (I've bottled it and buying a 13MY). Nice to see somebody has the sphericals to do it though Laughing
