Default LED Headlights questions

Hi guys,

I can get a pair of OEM LED headlights and was wondering what is required to install the OEM LED headlights from the premium package CT to a basic CT model. It is just a direct plug and play? Any rewiring or hardware required?

Thanks in advance.

AAU

probably have to mess around with the headlight switch... Just like VW's and 'euro switches', a few simple wires - most likely.

The LED headlamp assembly itself retails around $2800.00 EACH! That's not including the control module for each lamp assy. HID conversion is a lot cheaper.

Well, I like the headlight housing with the 2 mini projectors plus the LED day time running light runs all the way across the headlight, continuiously. I am able to get a set of used housing for $300? But I need to factor in the cost for wiring and other module I need to purchase.

Are you telling us or asking us? If you're asking us, I'd say no freakin' way! That really just doesn't sound right at all, in fact, I'm not even sure why someone would be replacing their current LED lights?
