Headlights on S trim

I have 2016 S trim with halogen bulbs.
I want to have the same LED headlights as on SR or Platinum trim.
What is the part number for those LED bulbs?

Might want to get the LED reflectors as well, because without those you will be losing significant illumination distance and shape. Good luck though, whatever you do.

Buy some H11 LED bulbs on Amazon.

Get some which will give you 70-80 or even 100 watt combined.Don’t look for lumens.

I thought it is only LED bulbs. I didn't knew it was about reflectors also

These suggestions are right. What about getting some used headlights from a 2016-2018 Platinum. Otherwise, you will see that the reflection media in the headlights is not set up right on the S model and you may in fact mess up the visual distance or "light throw".

I believe there are different plugs on (Platinum) it won’t be easy.

S model comes with the projector. So buying LED bulbs will be the cheapest way. Plus it will be a significant update to original non led bulbs. There will a huge difference. Because stock candescent light bulbs is complete crap.
