2015 insignia headlights

[matken]

hi all, i have recently bought an insignia 2015 hatchback which has some fancy headlights in they are the “Vauxhall Insignia Front Xenon LED-DRL 2013-2017 Headlight”. 

 

the passenger side has loads of co sensation in and im guessing is leaking i looked at getting it replaced only to be told the headlight isnt available new anywhere even from

vauxhall and a single second hand one will cost around £700. my question is can i just remove both headlights and out in the basic halogen ones that are readily available and a lot cheaper? is the fitting the same? and will the plug fit the basic halogen assembly wiring wise? 

If anyone knows or can point me to someone that would know i would greatly appreciate it.

I'm in the same situation.  I spoke to a local auto electrician and he says it can't be done, he's tried it and had to mod wiring loom but still had warning lights on dash.    I'm picking up a set of older insignia headlights 1ZT 011 165 and will try them out, My car has 1ZT 011 166-731 lights.  

I'll post back if it works out.
