2017 headlights are awful. Add driving lights? Change housings??

FYI. my wife's 2015 Outback does that with its foglights from the factory, There's a button on the dash for SRF, steering responsive fog-lights.

I wonder if that whole system would swap over...

Does it just take a signal from the canbus? I'm not really privy to how automotive systems work. In theory you'd need some kind of trigger at a certain steering angle to activate the lights. Which it seems would require some software

I didn't reinstall mine after swapping out control arms since there really wasn't a spot for it, and I didn't know what it was, and my beams got pretty freaky. I personally love the new headlights, they're a nice wide beam, too bright, and I don't have that dead spot you mentioned.

Is this on USDM twins as well?

2017 86 here, the lights are LED and I beleive auto leveling. They DO have an adjustment knob. Either 8mm or flathead will raise the beam up or down.
