So I ordered the oem projector headlights for my 2015 lone star, and I was wondering if when adding switchbacks do I need to open the headlights "bake"? Or can it be done by just swapping the bulb for the led's?

Thank you in advance

The switchbacks are actually LED boards that replace the factory LED boards so you have to bake them open to do the swap.

285 degrees for 17 minutes. Not an easy project especially if its your first time. Not only is taking it apart difficult, but you have to seal it up properly or else you get condensation. Send it to Retroshop and have him do an FX-R retrofit while he's at it. Well worth the money imo.
