I replaced mine on my GT03 last year with these:

All look the same as the factory ones. The plastic backing bowl lip needed trimming (as was my factory one).

There was a post on here about some that didn't have all the lines on the glass giving a cleaner light.

I think I re-used 1 of mine, so you should be fine to use the existing bowls. The other one had some heat damage due to a bad connection, which warped the bowl, so the light didn't sit correctly, hence I replaced it.

Not sure if these pics will help, have changed a couple over the years but you will need to double check the part number with the one you have taken out against these. I got these from my local motor factor.
