Swap 2014 SLE Headlights for SLT w/ LEDs?

I hear ya man lol. There was a design change in the SLT lights on the LED's and a change in the venting system because of headlight moisture and condensation but not sure exactly when the transition date was. I did some research and compared pics before I purchased my lights to be sure I got the newer Gore venting system and at least a late 2014 or newer build date to be sure I had the whiter LED's. Like I said, not sure when the transition was and my build date was Jan 2015. Here is a diagram I just did to show the difference in venting system between the older and newer lights.

Well finally received my headlights and harness thurs night. So Friday morning when I got off I decided to install everything. Took me a little over an hour to take my truck apart and put it back together. I'm very pleased with the outcome of the lights and harness

Here's where I mounted my relays. Used self tapping screws and easily accessible if a relay needs to be changed.

Has anyone used the harness with HID or LED headlight ballasts yet? Just wondering if there will be any issues before I install my new harness and slt lights.

I have an HID kit on my truck and they work fine. Actually they work better then they did before the harness. Before when they would go off there was a delay on one of the lights... so it would go off like a sec after the other light. Now they turn off together.

Awe hell man. I'm not sure. Would have to pull the truck apart for the eleventybillionth time to check. Lol

No, just pull the radiator cover off. The tag is on the top of the lights.
