Question, I bought the some of the headlights that attached in the pictures, they have regular bulbs in them, they are inset and hard wired at the bulbs (see picture). I have a set of LED plug and play bulbs that I would like to use in the headlight instead, in hopes to get better lighting. What would the best way to go about doing this? I guess I can cut the wires on the LED bulbs and solder them to the wires of the headlights, but what would be the best way to go about securing those bulbs into the socket, they aren't like the OEM housing, they don't have slots for the locking tabs. Thank in advance

So i had these exact ones on my old F150 and i didnt have to do any cutting. All i had to do was find the led bulb that matched that headlight bulband it worked perfectly, no cutting or soldering.

Thank you kind Sir. On the hunt I go. Any idea where you found them? I've been looking and I haven't found anything.

I got them from my local LED light shop but you can find a lot of people selling them online.
