Swap 2014 SLE Headlights for SLT w/ LEDs?

[zmnypit]

 

I see, so the 16 SLE lights are a go with a new custom harness according to that thread. Hopefully something can be worked out, I know Diode Dyanmics makes a replacement board to work as a switchback for the DRL's so maybe there's a start somewhere around there.

 

Looks good man, I didn't see that. The 16 lights fit these 14 trucks well. Especially when you do black and white.. ;)

 

Yep. Think I should message them? Yeah I like your PS better. Gives you a better view head on.

 

edit: Never mind I see its replacement LEDs. I was thinking it was just a circuit board for some reason.

Definitely wouldn't hurt to. Hell I can send them one too, give em a little more incentive to work on it. Thanks, if I would've seen yours I probably wouldn't have even made one. I have some ideas for customizing them as well but like you said it's best not to get ahead of ourselves. We need to make sure they work first lol.

Will work on it this weekend. My buddy has a 16 so I can see the wires/pins colors etc. Hopefully have some kind of update in a couple days.

_{I don't think Diode Dynamics can be much help on these '16's. They have switchbacks for the '14/'15's and I've had 2 sets of lights built with DD switchbacks. The switchback has a module and had to be tied into the existing halogen turns for resistance to prevent hyper flashing otherwise you would to use external inline load resistors. These '16 SLT lights are a totally different beast with the BCM. I think it's great Gen5 found a soloution to use '16 HID's on the '14/'15 but as of now, they aren't gonna do anything with the '16 SLT to '14/'15. Unless zmnypit can figure this one out, then it is what it is...}

No pressure or anything.. I sent jarrod an email, he said if I got no where and I wanted to send them in he/they would try. Guess we'll see in a couple days. I need to take my bumper off and repaint the lower valence piece anyways (hit someone at a redlight) so timing is good.

Lol I hear ya bud! I'm pulling for ya !

Guess its going to be alligator clip testing as I've yet to find a plug/pig tail harness. The dealership said they don't exist that I had to buy the whole assembly which is BS.

I'm sure Jarod or Ofer would sell you one or give you the part #

I emailed them this morn but haven't heard back.

I'd call. Sometimes email is slow boat to China. Do you have his #? I have it if you need.

I've got it. No rush since I wont have it this weekend anyways.

Any update on the 2016 headlights working on 2014/2015 trucks?

[mafd2]

For sure the 16 SLE HID's will work on the '14/'15 with the Gen5 harness.

Any update, been following this thread and I am curious to see what you found.

What about the 2016 LED headlights working on the 2014/2015?
