G30 LCI headlights replacement

How easy and how much coding do I need to replace the headlights? I want to replace from base headlights to LED headlights, not adaptive/matrix, is it just plug and play, because I could nto find a guide?

G30 LCI already has 552 Adaptive Full LED Lights as standard equipment. Which headlight do you have?

Similar question but I’m pre lci 2019. Interested in switching from xenon to LED or the “laser” lights in the future if possible. I really prioritize seeing at night with some poorly lit roads and woods drives I take late at night.

The laser lights should be simple. You only need to install them, no extra wiring and code them. Sometimes they might need to be flashed.
Remove the existing light packages from FA and add 5AZ then code the modules. If you are interested i can help with the coding remotely.
