From what I understand the process of upgrading to the new bi-xenon headlamp is both complex and expensive. It requires some new front body parts which will need to be painted as the new headlamp housings are not exactly the same size as the previous ones. There are also some modifications required to the wiring and a re-programming of the onboard computers to behave differently with xenon headlamps.

Basically, the only way to do it is via your dealership.

I already have the xeons...I had the dealer flash the computer to except them....all I want is the headlights itself.....I found the new style fogs and tailights But no headlights.... The fogs and tailights were priced pretty good and fit right in.... The fogs came with the new housing...
