The entire thing is one piece. Self contained. The drl and headlight aren't separate. So it's expensive to make. As such, no one but Mazda sells them. So you can't price them out anywhere. You're at the mercy of dealer pricing.
Look at the bright side...if mine fail in 5 years, it's going to cost me $1,300 at least.
The bright spot is the rears. There's a big aftermarket for the previous gen replacement led lights. Hopefully the new gen will see something similar.

Your headlights are already LED low beams, just doesn't have the LED accent and the LED tails. If I were you and want to upgrade, just do the tails.
I've mentioned on another post before, but I always tend to get my cars fully loaded so I don't regret it later on. The money you're spending to get the parts will almost be worth just upgrading trim level :/

There is one member here who ordered halo leds from Japan and hooked them up. Mind you, they already had the GT but didn't like the fact that the whole front lights(halo led & led headlights) would be on for DRLs.
So you can get the halo DRL's for the front to work in conjunction with your current led headlights and then also separately buy tail lamp leds. FYI rear parkers, brake lights and reversing lights are led but turn signals are halogen.

I was thinking how happy I was a I have them. And they turn with the steering wheel? Love my led headlights! Sorry.
I have also heard of this feature however I haven't noticed it in my CX-5. Do you know what feature is this called?

Its called Adaptive Front-lighting System - AFS in the US. But you might have much more advanced Adaptive LED Headlights - ALH which is not available here in the US.

You cant not because they're so expensive, but they need AFS sensors attached to your steering system which you dont have in Touring. Taillights are much easier to update only for much higher price until some aftermarket parts become available.

Thanks. I have checked my brochure [emoji1].
It has. Correct me I'm wrong, it works only on auto mode right?

Does it turn in sync with the steering wheel even when on a stop?

No. You have to be moving at xx mph.

Look for a rear ended GT and Recycle the head lights onto your CX 5
Too soon to tell as they are not out yet

Those GT LED headlights with Signature LED DRLs come with AFS, you also need all sensors attached to steering system and wiring harness if you can find them.
