Headlights - I bought the Luminics Krypton Titanium bulbs. They are really white and look great, but to be honest, I can't see very well at night. I mean most of the areas I drive are well lit, but I was driving in Central Illinois last week, and they don't seem very safe to drive with. Just my thoughts.

Plug and play means exactly that. You DO NOT have to have anything reprogrammed when swapping tail light assemblies. If you switch the headlights to Bi-Xenon, you do have to have that feature enabled.

Hey QC, did you already installed your Led tails?

If you want a perfect match then go for the CrystalVision 4300k. If you want to to be near HID looks go for the DiamondVision which is what i ended up with.
