I thought so bc the headlights are the same shape and size regardless of the led. Did u have to do any modifications to get it on or was it direct nuts bolts screws etc?

the sewell 2011 bumper came with different brackets that mount on the bottom of the headlight that bolt right on. just take off the old bracket and put on the new one it comes with.
