Are these OEM headlights?

Can someone confirm if these are OEM? If so, what model do they come on and would they be plug and play on a 2923 lariat that currently has quad led.

Looks like the China Ford adaptive headlights. They have been sold here and on eBay.

Going from lower trim to high trim adaptive (turning) headlights requires a big investment with additional modules and wiring harnesses. It isn't a quick swap.

Would it just work without the adaptive function. I don’t have bending now so can’t imagine I’d care too much.

That is beyond my knowledge.
There are tons of Chinese knockoffs on eBay with projector LED that claim they would work. I only buy OEM parts and my Lariat came with adaptive bending lights.

Even if you tried to just "plug and play" it wouldn't work. There is still some wiring you have to do to get the turn signals to work, and you have to re-wire the harness as well.

Once you get the turn signals working with minimal wiring, you still will only have low beams. The HCM is required for high beams, but you get all other functionality (high beams, bending, glare free) besides leveling once you have the HCM. It's not a super hard job if you get a pre built harness (this takes almost all the wiring work out of it), but it isn't beginner level work either.

Thanks - so best bet is aftermarket or black/tremor quads ?

Is someone selling those or something?

Either aftermarket or modified.

Yeah, but getting into the headlights is task unto itself that done right, takes hours.
