So after driving my girlfriend's Mazda CX5, I want to change my headlights to led. My car is a 2020 Civic Sport hatch. I'm guessing you can switch to LEDs with the weird cat eye design these cars have? I want to switch both low and high beams, and maybe eventually the fogs.

For the high and low beams, I'd love to see any suggestions with links. I appreciate any help with this :)

Do I have to replace the entire assembly? I was hoping I could just change out the bulbs, but maybe not?

You don't have to go the full custom route and replace the entire headlight. Although if you did Unity's offering is definitely a good looking one.

You can just swap out your bulbs for leds. There's a large number of threads about this on the forum. For bulb sizes check out this thread: https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/lets-get-these-light-bulb-specs-straightened-out.9684/

Katana and Hikari LEDs are popular in this forum along with some other brands and models. Check this thread out for a review of Katanas as a start. I personally run the low beam LEDs mentioned in the thread and love them. Still running the stock high beams for now: https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/katana-led-h11-headlight-review.34332/

Thank you so much for this!! Eventually I'd like to replace the whole headlight unit but this is a good start for now.
