s2 suspension in s1 car

I have a 2004 RX-8. I bought it with 160k miles... and the original (or at least OEM) suspension components on it. They are toast.

I got a set of nearly free and nearly new cast off springs and shocks/struts from a 2009 RX-8.

Question 1: Will they work on my car? The question was asked in the thread below, but the answer provided wasn't conclusive. I think the answer is yes, I just want to confirm.

Based on that, it seems that using the 2009 rear strut would raise the back of the car a little bit. I know I have auto-leveling HIDs.

So, I read this:

Question two: If anybody has put S2 rear suspension on an S1 (I am considering it only because it is free), and if so, were any changes required to the headlight positions?
