Default 2016 XLT OEM LED headlight install

Not trying to be lazy, I did search the forums, but didn't find an answer.

I bought OEM LED's from a dealer and the necessary harness from Raptor Retrofit to change out my halogens. Question is, what are the (2) plugs for on the bottom of the LED housings? I've not seen them mentioned anywhere and there is no provision on the retrofit harness for them to plug into.

Any answer or guidance is appreciated

You need part #FL3Z-13C170-A and I ordered mine from Tasca Auto Parts for $104 a piece.

You can actually buy them black from some places on Ebay like Palm Coast like I did. The are called Black Special Edition. I hope this helps.

Ive been looking at these online. If I use the Raptor retrofit harness does that mean I don't need the ballasts any more?

No his harness is just to convert halogen to led you still need the ballast or driver what ever they call them

No. Bought them this way from Fairway Ford online. They referred to them as blackout edition. Can't wait to get them installed.
