Unfortunately, the 2024 Premium model we have came with LED projector headlights, so we can't illustrate that. There should be no reason an LED replacement bulb can't be used in place of the Halogen bulbs. However, you may want to test a couple different LED bulbs to see if it projects a lighting pattern that is satisfactory to your liking. Not all LED bulbs are the same and some of them will create some very weak illumination because the LED's are not reflecting properly based on the bulb design. There isn't any one in particular that I would recommend other than maybe checking with other owners in a Facebook group for Crosstrek's to see if there is any people really like better.
On my 2024 ascent, I was able to change all the interior lighting except for the map lights up front. I didn’t realize they switched to soldered led lights for the front.
That's one light we chose to not upgrade since the halogen bulbs against the Pearl White exterior looked good to us. It uses a Type 194 bulb, same as the ones used on the interior lights. If you do a RUclips search using "subaru ascent license plate light replacement" the first two videos are really good illustration the removal of the lights.
Great video and I hope the bulbs I bought from Amazon work well
thanks for clear video cay you also show if we can replace the hallogen bulb with LED bulb in Headlight.

I will check out on our 2023 if they are soldered in or not. That disappointing they would solder them in.
I have the same problem with the 2024
You are correct I was unable to do my 2024 as well it’s sold to the board
Could you do. Video on the license plate lights.

The door lower bulbs are easy to change if you just unplug them from the connector.
