2012 3.8 Sedan HID Bulb replacement

[Marcos genesis]

Good morning, I have a 3.8 that is suffering from Pink eye. I am going to replace the Low beam HIDs, convert High beams and turn signals to LED. Is there an almost easy way to remove the headlamp assembly to access all components without removing the bumper? Thanks in advance......

I replaced my high beams with these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007JZKBVW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
way nicer than the stock Yellow look. I looked into changing them to LED but since they are a combination of DRL and high beam, I opted to go the easy route.
I have not tackled the front turn signal LED upgrade yet but did do the rear turn signals.

What year and model car do you have? I have a 2011 4.6 which I was weighing the options of replacing the high beams with LED or a brighter white halogen.

2012

I don't think the 2011 have DRL, it might have been something which was added to the 2012 model. I know things like power folding mirrors were one of the upgrades made that year.

You are correct. It does look like it takes the same H7 bulb though. If you go with LED, you may need to put a resistor on each one to keep them from hyper flashing. I installed a set of H4 LED's on a Pontiac Vibe (High-Low beam combo bulb) and they only hyper flashed on low beam not high beam. You may get lucky since yours would be high beam only.

Seems that this is the product I have been looking for. Is almost impossible to adapt one of the good quality H7 LD bulbs that comes with fans. I have tried 3 different types of models of LED H7 that has the exact same shape as a Halogen H7, but they all scatter the light and they are garbage. I just ordered based on the pictures that people posted on Amazon... they seem almost as white as LED. Thank you for sharing
