You beat me to it! I was just going to post a link to say that I've posted photos of the standard LED headlights that are fitted to my car.

I've driven twice now in pitch black conditions on country lanes, and I have to say the headlights are really good. That said, this is the first car I've owned that has LED headlights, so I suppose any kind of LED headlight is going to be an improvement over halogen to me.

I do like the way the DRL switches off on the side of an active indicator - I think it makes the indicator more obvious to other drivers as it is not obscured by an adjacent bright white light like some other cars.

I just ordered mine. I had a very restricted budget and wasn’t able to pick the adaptive headlight.
The car looks totally different without :-(

Could I let them installed afterwards?

Anything is possible with enough money. You’ll likely run into issues though coding the headlights to work properly with the car.

It didn’t look like an expensive option, around 800euros, but only had 600euro I could spend. But it seems like I would need to spend some couple of thousand euros to retrofit it afterwards :-/

You can always call your dealer and change the headlights before its on status 112.
