Not hijacking thread (hopefully) but can genuine front and rear LED main light units be bought as plug and play for the 3 Door 2010 MY please?

Thanks.

Rears are a straight swap and will work, but require coding to turn off the bulb out message on the dash.

If you currently have OEM xenons, then retro fitting later LED xenons is straight forward, just needing a little coding. Fitting xenons into cars with halogen lights is not so straight forward. You need a different BCM to control the main beam shutter as well as some additional coding.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Thanks. The fronts are halogen. Like the look of the car stock and as is, so probably not worth the trouble.
