Default R/C 350 F Sport headlights?

Hello all,
question, on all the initial photos seen with the R/C350F Sport showing 3 square headlamps prior to actually seeing the car in a palm beach dealer and on cars.com, all the R/C350F Sports have the round headlamps instead of the 3 square lamps as shown now only on the RCF? my question is will I be able to interchange the R/C350F Sport round headlamps with the 3 square headlamps as on the RCF ordering the OEM headlight sets from Lexus? will they fit and what different hardware or wire harness may be needed if this is even possible? thanks for all technical responses.

Probably 'Yes' to all those questions but can you afford the $7K to retrofit?

I think the 3 square headlights are an RC-F specific Item. Eyeballing it it looks like it can be a direct swap but there are probably some wiring integration to make full use of it.... Oh and also the price of the headlights.

Why not ask the dealer if its an option available for order then special order it?

Lexus USA is not offering the triple LED headlights on the RC350. Not even an option. Most likely it will be offered on next model year.
