2018 headlights

My son has a 2018 XLT Sport 302a. He mentioned that he liked the look of the Lariat's daytime running lights (the LEDs around the perimeter of the housing). I may have a line on a pair of Lariat lights and was wondering if we were to switch them over to his truck, is it just plug and play or is there a new module or just wondering what is involved in the change over?

Thanks guys.

It might be plug and play. If it doesn't already have daytime running lights, then you might need to activate it using Forscan.

It isn't plug & play if he has the halogens. I wanted to go that route too, but instead I bought the Morimoto XB headlights. I saw a video that these headlights show a higher lumen than the Lariat LED's. My neighbor has the Lariat, so we compared one night, and mine were brighter.

I bought these last October, and couldn't be happier with them.

I've been thinking about buying these. I bought Anzo Planks for my '16 XLT Sport and put LED bulbs in them; the light output was mediocre at best. Is there a noticeable difference in the lows and highs with the XBs? With the Anzos, the high beams weren't useable at all. I love the look of the Anzos but these Morimotos look great and seem to have good lighting reviews.
