AlphaRex offered a 15% discount for Black Friday, so I ordered the LUXX Series LED headlights https://alpharexusa.com/products/15...headlights-alpha-black?variant=48080863035681.

Someone backed into the Charger, did not leave a note, and caused some damage (cracked the headlight and damaged the cover).

The most difficult part of replacing the headlights was removing the bumper cover. Once removed, the installation went fine with only one small issue. The AlphaRex headlight did not drill the top mounting holes correctly.

Here is the stock mounting size:

I used a 5/8 drill bit to allow for enough space for the mounting bolt. Here are some pictures of the finished product:

The headlights support either white or amber colored daytime running lights. They are sequential and I uploaded a video to YouTube:

The pictures do not do the lights justice, the camera does not capture the details. However, the product page does capture the details of the LEDs.

IMPORTANT: There are no replacement bulbs for these lights. Once they no longer work, the entire headlight housing must be replaced.

I used a heat gun and did what I could to fix the bumper cover. I’ll need a new bumper cover, since the cover is cracked in a few areas.
