Headlight Question

Been away from Ford for a while, last F150 I owned was a 91 F150 Lariat regular cab. I have a question about the headlights on my 2018 Lariat Super Crew. How can you tell,if you have LED headlights?

Lariat 502A or higher trims have LED headlights.

I have the 501A package, so no LED lights. Thanks for the reply. To upgrade to LED’s, do I need to switch out the whole light assembly?

You can start by checking the window sticker.

There is a lot involved in replacing halogen headlights with led headlights. You need to purchase the led assemblies plus all the other components and wirings.

It is only plug and play if you are going from led to led.

Unless you just want to replace the halogen bulb with an led bulb. That's easy but make sure it doesn't blind other drivers.
