Default Installing LED Headlights on Halogen XLT

I have Black 2019 XLT with Stock Halogen headlights.

So, I am about to pull the trigger on 2018 Black OEM LED Headlights. I’m getting a great deal for them $1500 for the pair. After reading all the reviews on forums the aftermarket lights are not worth the money, time, and hassle.

But before I pull trigger can anyone help me understand what else I need to hook this up?

Do I need a different wire harness or module etc? If so what parts would I need.

Just want to understand if it’s easy install or I need a lot of different parts.

You will need a Halogen to LED conversion harness from @2016BoostedGreyGoose. He has a website www.bostedgreygoosedesigns.net.Also, make sure you get the ballasts with the housings or you'll be a no go.

ok great thanks for info...

Do I purchase the ballasts from Ford or do I get it from the same person who is sending me the Headlights?

Did the seller not tell you if they have them included or not? They are expensive.

I did not ask. Will ask though. Is it part of the assembly? I saw them online for $180 a piece though through a Ford part website.

They are mounted on the bottom of the light an are removable. So the seller should let you know if they are included.

This thread has all the information you need to complete the job. The hardest part for me was pinning the BCM.

For $1,500 I would really hope that includes everything you would need. If not then consider a morimoto or something similar that’s cheaper than that.
