As we now have an excellent set of pictures of the harness and lamps from the Stig, I wanted to post a little info on the process as found by folks on the Ranger forums with their conversion. This is the closest information we have to what Bronco will require at this time.
Overall parts cost will be approximately $5,200 assuming you can re-use all wiring, hardware and your time is worth nothing.

Head light swap for Ranger:
- This is a straight plug & play swap, no wiring required!
- MSRP for each headlight is $1,600 (assuming no core swap)
-
- https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/electrical/headlamps
- Ensure you are selecting "level 2 headlamps" as that is the upgraded signature lamp.
-
- Please note that for Ranger the grills are identical between signature and base lamps. I do not know if there are grill differences for Bronco, I'm assuming not as they heavily advertised that there would be many grills to choose from and they are single-piece replacements.
- Price for Ranger is $975 eachfor BLIS equipped tail lights. This includes the BLIS sensor and controller, so expect Bronco part to be cheaper individually, but about the same price overall.
- First you must understand that the Signature (LED) tail lights for Ranger & Bronco contain the BLIS sensors. You will NOT gain BLIS simply by adding Signature tail lights with the sensors. It is also not known if they will function properly as tail lights.
- You will have dashboard warning lights if you convert from signature to base tail lights.
- On Ranger, the canon plug for tail lights between base and Signature lights is completely different, so you must require heavily from the ECU back.
- It appears the BLIS controller for Bronco is mounted below the taillight and operates on it's own canon plug, there will be less, but not unsubstantial wiring from the ECU to the BLIS control box.
- BLIS must also be enabled with FORSCAN, even if you have the lamps, BLIS control box, sensors and wired everything in, it won't work without FORSCAN
- FORSCAN can be had for less than $300, depending on what you buy and what hardware you need to connect it.
- There is currently nobody who has successfully swapped from base to Signature tail lights on Ranger. Personally I do not anticipate anybody doing so for Bronco either as parts are prohibitively expensive and tail lights often take a beating in certain types of off road driving.

- Price for NON-BLIS tail lights are $275 each.
