Default 2017 rx350 head lamp conversion

I bought an RX with std headlamp. I would like to change them to the triple beam LED style that you see on F sport models. What is the feasibility of buying and replacing?

I am thinking it could be done but the parts will be VERY EXPENSIVE.

Not sure if there would be any other issues, someone here might know.

There's already a thread about this. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I've already tried it (purchased the triple LED headlight and ended up returning it) and it requires replacing the entire wiring harness, camera light sensor, and ECU programming which ends up way more than $5k (not including cost of headlights). Another owner tried doing this on his NX (he spent over $4k) and he did not succeed (even with the help of Lexus Master Mechanics). Your best bet is to trade it in for an RX that has it already equipped and it will also come with the LED tail lights.

Yep, if one was actually able to get it to work, most likely cost with labor would be over $10k. Crazy. Glad I got them.
