I want to upgrade my headlights to xenon ones with the halo circles in LED's
Do you know if I i buy the headlights I will need ECU computer or something and balasts etc?
How do i remove the lights, is it a case of removing the front bumper?

Just hoping someone can generally point me in the right direction with this upgrade.

Thank you
If you go the route of buying OEM xenons you will need to purchase the ecu computer for the headlights plus all other misc. accessories to make them compatible, since they cannot just be plugged in. If you go this way, it will cost you $2k+ (from what others have stated. Note: the headlights alone cost a most of that) If you are interested in the ones I got, search for JLC custom in the commercial sales section.

As far as removing the lights, there is a way to remove the lights without taking off the bumper, but either way, there are many bolts to unfasten and it is not a super quick job if you don't know what you are doing.

If you need me to answer any other questions let me know.
