2SS/RS package, headlight questions
Can the headlights on a non-RS car be easily upgraded to the Halo style on the RS package cars? Or possibly another option? Other than the 20” wheels are there options that an RS package car would have that I would miss if I purchased a 2SS without RS? No navigation isn’t an issue.
2013 model year. Thanks |

There's a few things different with the lighting for the HID/halo lights. There are kits that you can purchase that give an aftermarket halo so that you can look like you have the RS package still. Other items in the RS package include tinted taillights, different wheels, painted drip molding on top of the car, and of course the different headlights. Navigation is available with or without the RS package, but I've found with having navigation on a car, that you're better off without it and having Apple Carplay or Android Auto and using your phone's compatible navigation apps. They're MUCH more up to date.

The headlight upgrade to RS headlights is simple. I would recommend buying a set of used OEM RS halo headlights ( they are always on here in the classified section) and you will need a harness from Gen5Diy to make the switch. It's all plug and play. Most of the aftermarket Halos require you cracking open your existing lights to install. There are options also for complete aftermarket lights but most won't hold up you will be wasting your money. Go the OEM route with the harness and you will be thanking me later. I have wasted alot of money and tried them all and love my OEM lights.

Awesome! Thanks guys. Appreciate the responses, Love the look of the halos and I’m glad to know I can get them if the car isn’t equipped.
