Default Headlights

I am looking for recommendations for LED headlights for my '04 convertible. I see I posted/asked about 'Bi-xenon Radioflyer ACA Projector Headlight' back in 2012 but I still have the OEM lights. I'm hearing now, almost any 'fit in' LED will give me 10 times better light? Comments?

These are the new hotness for C5 pop-up LED replacements.

I am more than pleased with my Sharp Light Innovations (Radio Flyer) Bi-LED ACA set up. Difference is literally night and day.

I had these before the KnightDriveTV lights. They were a great improvement. Just as bright as the KnightDriveTV lights but not a sharp cutoff at the top. I never had anyone flash me though and drove a lot a night on 2 lane roads. Of course I ordered the 9005 and 9006 versions of the same lights for low and high beam.
