"Signature" LED headlights
I picked up my Fuji white Pure in November and was quite disappointed about the "signature" led on the headlights. I suppose the LED ring around the projector is not standard nor is it an option on Pure models for the States. Asked the dealer for an upgrade, was told they are ~$1500/per assembly. Really considering just swapping the internals of the assembly. Does anyone on here have connections of part #'s or a diagram of the internal workings of the headlight assembly??

RE: "Signature" LED headlights
Good question - been meaning to look into it myself but not sure if they are available as parts or just as a full headlamp unit. I'm hoping one of the aftermarket firms brings out a kit similar to the BMW angel eyes.

RE: "Signature" LED headlights
How quite disappointing. Just called my dealer and they cannot get the internal components. And would cost about $2400 for the pair and also may need different wiring. Guess I gotta wait for some Chinese company to make some aftermarket units.

RE: "Signature" LED headlights
All of us still waiting some option, my friend make the conversion for his led headlamp for Camaro, no problem till now. So i will buy an original led headlights by dynamic and will give to my engineer to try to fit on pure. No need to be plug e play. I think a little bit starnge the people saying that is just not workable since pure also have the midnight lamp. So i hope it works

RE: "Signature" LED headlights
I would consider myself a bit knowledgeable on electronics. I would assume it would be almost plug-and-play with the halogen and xenon seeing that the only difference is the rings. I mean there is only one main harness going into the assembly, thus all electrical should have already been ran (to cut cost on producing multiple harnesses). Therefore the only difference should be the internal wiring of each individual headlight assembly. both halogen and xenon have accent LED, and the main projector should be the same wiring. But to drop $2400 on a hunch and hope that the Xenon come with "rings" without a possibility of return is a lot. Someone please confirm that the xenons have those rings. i have part number for the xenons but parts guy couldn't confirm.

RE: "Signature" LED headlights
Halogen to Xenons in not simply 'plug-and-play'.... Xenons require auto leveling which in turn requires sensors (in the wheel arches) which in turn implies a totally different harness and different electronics to read the sensors and sense appropriate messages to the 'plug-and-play' headlight assembly...
Nothing is impossible but somethings are harder to do than others

not sure if those are just a different colour for the actual bulbs or the lights themselves..
seems pretty cheap if its the lights themselves... which leads me to believe it might just be a different colour bulb for the already installed xenons.

It's the Xeon bulb with the transformer. Still don't get you the Signature LED.
