HID on 2010-2013 Premium from factory. I don't think there was an option - I may be wrong though. From 14+ is LED

Excellent info! Thank you!

Is there a way to tell from the VIN if it's premium or not? Not all listing say it.

For a 10-13 Premium

Headlight washers or trim on rear windows like this



versus this




The 10-13 base can optionally have AFS HIDs as well but you need to run the VIN.

It should show up on the build list

As a stock piece it is part of those rear windows and not sold separately.
