Is it just a matter of replacing bulbs and associated wiring and other related parts? I mean, more of a ‘plug and play’ deal?

They are fairly a plug and play, but require replacement of the entire head light housing because the Lits use a motorized focusing lense assembly that is unique to the Lit housings. Beyond that, you will need to add a controller to the headlight wiring harness that controls the focusing lense movement. And a Mike noted they are anything but cheap, but they are some great lights.

You don't actually need the controller. They work just fine without it.
