+1. You are gonna blind someone. HIDs are always brighter than LEDs by far. HIDs shine further than LEDs no matter what today's technology is. What LED headlights do is that they use many leds and reflectors to make it shine. IMO, HIDs are still brighter.

Super Gene is right!

I will be taking some pix later. I need a LCI E60 or E9X for me to snap some pix. My car is at home.

HIDs are definitely brighter but these come close. These CREE LEDs are amazing. HIDs are at least double the brightness.
