Differences Between Upgraded LED And Standard LED Headlights

Greetings,

I know on the standard lights the high beam is NOT LED but are there any other changes to the lights?

Does the standard LED lights still have the SAME led DRLs the upgraded lights have?


thank you

thank you

there are 3 light packages.

1. standard halogen
2. static LED
3. ILS LED

the static led looks same as ILS LED in all situations except the high beam is a LED projector on ILS vs reflective LED on static led. color looks to the same. also the amber reflector on ILS lights is slightly smaller than static led lights. in addition you get ILS functions.

How does one specify the ILS option, is it a separate option code when ordering?
