    I need replace the headlights in my 2012 Platinum since one is fogging up on the inside. Mine has the motorized switch and notice that only the driver side had a motor and was wondering if that’s how they come from the factory. I checked the passenger side and did not a harness that would plug in to it.
    Thanks

    Both sides would have the motor and the connector is triangle shaped.

    Thanks. I’ll have to see if I can find the harness. The passenger light that’s in there now doesn’t have a motor

    I double checked and the drivers side HL does not have a motor. After a little more searching, I was able to find the plug that goes to it. The big decision now are what headlights to install. Looking for something with better light output that’s easy to install and won’t break the bank

    Either OEM headlights and install Vled Micros (I ran them on my 2nd gen) or a set of Morimoto XB's. It depends on your budget. Dont go with the cheap Spyders, Anzos, or Alpharex.
