Bulbs?

Bulbs and housing?

Bulbs, housing and wiring?
It will be housing or housing & wiring (obviously with a built-in LED module).

There is no way and OEM will just putting an LED "bulb" in an existing housing. Due to physics, LED bulbs are a downgrade when placed in a housing designed for halogen bulbs. Halogen housings focus light from a single point source. LED bulbs, no matter how thin they try to make them, will still be wider and will not focus properly. They would produce more glare and/or reduce visibility. Simple physics.

Hopefully, like with their LED fog lamps, we will just need the new housings and no wiring changes.
