Stock lighting to Xenon LED

So I was wondering, I have stock halogen head lights in my clubman, if I buy the entire module xenon LED (like off a car at a junkyard), is it a simple swap or do I need an adapter harness?

Hello,

Easier to just swap in the xenon kit and code, OEM+ lower price now( we have free ship and lower price). https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...rofit-kit.html

Or get the projector halogen aftermarkets and go with a led bulb conversion kit. https://www.ecstuning.com/Mini-2009-...ng/Headlights/ The you need to get the corresponding kit, most are H7 or H9 in the aftermarket, we have those its listed.

When you mess with wires and gutting and old system it might have issues. Some people have done it and taken old system out: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...t-attempt.html

I bought a pair of LED "conversion" lamps off eBay for my '13 Clubman. First time I drove in the fog I stopped to pull them, replaced with halogen lamps I'd carefully kept in the glove box.
Awful beam pattern, no difference on high beam over low.
But for ~ $80 I guess I didn't expect much anyway. "Get what you pay for" applies here too.
