    Is it possible to do a plug and play with the headlights in a sr5 from a limited tundra which has all led headlights? Or is it a complicated swap with lots of modifications?

    I have the LED light on my truck and they turn the night into daylight, they are also much better then the LEDs I had on my previous F-150.

    If you can afford it go for it.

    Yes, you can and it is not complicated. There are two vendors that sell the harness, @iHacker and @eledobleu . Both are very good quality and have extensive installation instructions. Essentially, the 2018 OEM SR5 uses the same headlight as a 2017 Platinum/1794 which has an LED DRL and halogen headlight (I had the 2016 version) which converts to full LED. This is mainly PNP harness plus changing one pin in the turn signal plug for each headlight (driver + passenger).

    Every time I think about doing some LED headlights, I look at the price and reality checks in. Those 18 factory LED lights are awesome.
