4GC LED Retrofit

Hello,

Just purchased a 4GC with Xenon lights as LED option is highly expensive in here because of the taxes, something like 4000Euros.

I just wanted to know if it is technically possible to change the lights to LED ?

IMHO, I can't see why you would want to do that. I admit LEDs look cool just don't think they are worth the money, stock or aftermarket.

There has never been a retrofit that would cost less than buying the same functionality as a factory option.

the LED element is not just the headlight itself but also includes the detector so the light beam changes based on road condition....it costs over 6500USD (tax inc.) which is too expensive =_=
