I was hoping I could also find some LED full housing replacements, I just have some bulbs with built in resistors that work well, but the GX really keeps riding the old incandescent train.
Agreed, would be nice to get an LED direct swap with the housing.

and thank you for verifying old part number is teh same part as with new part number

Default Front turn signals

My 2018 has a cracked lens cover on the passenger side front. It looks like Rock Autoo has the lens cover only for about $50.00. Would I need to remove the whole assembly to just replace the lens cover? Thank you.

They come as a housing, so the lens is not separate. I bought the DEPO brand (CAPA certified) from RockAuto and they look really nice and were carefully packaged. They appear identical, though the tabs were slightly different and for my experience fit a little better (tighter). Normally I would stick with OEM everything, especially on my near new 22'. However since the lens seemed to have cracked early in my travels and may possibly crack again (I live on a dirt road), I decided to save some some $ since the function and appearance is the same and this not a mechanical part.

I removed the fog light housing (3 x 10mm bolts) first to get better access to the tabs on the lens housing. The tabs are tricky, but once you know where to press the on the 3 tabs to release it, the housing will come out fairly easy. There is at least 1 10mm bolt for the lens housing (don't remember now) and I also removed some bolts to the lower tray (in front of the wheels) to move to the side for better access and visibility. The wire to the bulb holder is clipped to the lamp housing which needs prying off before removing the lamp.
