I don’t know what changed about the Armada headlights after 2007 that made them not compatible, but I can’t find any similar headlights for that year Armada either!
Great how to video. I didn't get these headlights but I got other new ones and need to replace them on 04 titan. I like that you named all the bulbs needed also. 👍🏾
Unfortunately these aren’t made for the 2015 Armada. Comparing pictures of these versus stock 2015 Armada headlights, it looks like the bracket for the painted trim is different. Other than that, they look basically identical, but I can’t say for sure.
I installed the same ones, driver side has hyperflash turn signal, passenger doesnt. Driver side led strip works sometimes, passenger side never does. All bulbs are new.
@FixandMaintain halogen, the headlight came with its own module box thing for programming. It can run halogens. The led strip is on its own system. The rest of the halogen is connected per usual with the regular harness. It's not oedro headlights though, it's the same thing but different brand.
@FixandMaintain update: everything stopped working all together, all my lights, they do nothing anymore. Fried my whole system. And to verify I checked fuses, relays. You name it. Everything, I even threw off the new and put the old headlight on, and still, nothing.
Wow. That’s very weird. So, the reason I was asking about LED vs Incandescent for the turn signals is that the turn signal flasher relay is designed operate with the resistance of the stock incandescent bulb and will cause a rapid flash if it is used with an LED bulb. I didn’t know they made a halogen turn signal bulb, but that could have had something to do with the issue. Also, if the polarity of an LED bulb is reversed (which has a 50/50 chance of happening with a turn signal bulb) then it will not work at all.
The white LED strip on the headlights on my Titan are manual, so not true DRLs. They are white when the DRL/“parking lights” are on and will switch to amber when the turn signal is switched on. They get power from the turn signal bulb which is still there, but somewhat hidden behind a small black hood on the OEDRO headlights.
Great video, thank you. Really want to get a pair of these for my 2011 Armada. Need to find ones compatible with that year.

Thanks! Yeah, I try to do all the research 😉
Good explanation, well done man
Thanks! I absolutely love the look of them and so far they’ve held up well since installing!
Would this work on 2015 armada? Or is there a bracket adapter I might need?

Can you run a switch to control the DRL's seperately?
The DRLs are powered from the same wires as the turn signal bulb. So I’m sure that would be possible if you trace it back to the appropriate wire.

Did you use LED or Incandescent bulbs for the turn signals?

@FixandMaintain already contacted Amazon, and they're willing to pay for mechanics bill.

So they for sure fit my 2013 armada?
No, 2005-2007 Armada. I think there was a slight design change 2008+ in the Armada. They look the same, but not showing as compatible.
How do the drl’s get power?
