Yes, I did those upgrades so they are possible.

There's always a way if you willing to spend money depending on which way you go ... You can go OEM way (cost the most) or DIY way (cost less) either way it'll require re-wiring on their own way.

May require some understanding in electronics especially if you do DIY way ... either way get ready to spend a lot of money for doing headlights & taillights upgrade even only on the parts and some more again on the labor if you go OEM way.

Headlights and/or taillights upgrades are more like plug-'n-pray (especially on the front, the rear not so much) ... so not a simple swap.

GL!
