Headlights suck, couple questions:

Our headlights are terrible...almost no difference between high beam and low beam, poor spread, just bad. So I'm looking at installing some bi-led morimoto modules.

First question: Before I go through the effort and expense, are there any drop in options available that will improve the light? Will the Navigator xenon headlights swap over (and are they better)?

Second: Has anyone else torn the headlights apart and installed morimoto/similar LED's or xenon modules? Can you bake the headlights apart to disassemble them or are they glued?

What year are you talking about? I and others here have installed these with great results. Huge difference. Mine is a 2014 so I can't speak to 2015-up which are a different design headlight.

It's a 2012. I've tried LED bulbs in the past and found the "upgrade" to mostly be placebo...lots of scatter and the "improvement" was mostly just the different color temp playing with our perception. I would much rather get better modules in the fixtures.

I understand, I have purchased other LEDs that were terrible. I will say that with these the LED modules are actually in the right place so the light placement and cutoff is great, and no blinding oncoming drivers. I don't have any before/after pics but for the price it was a huge improvement.

I'm a little late to the game on the thread and checked out the lights you linked (and rwmorrisonjr too). Any problem with flicker? I posted the question on amazon referencing my 2013 LTD and said not problem, but would also provide a canbus if that was the case. Curious as to your experiences.
