Do other drivers on the road a favour and leave the standard headlights alone.
Which ever LED's you fit will blind oncoming drivers, factory fitted LED lights on all makes of vehicle do this.

I'm not sure if there are any which are legal to fit on a UK reg vehicle. Its likely that the eBay/Aliexpress bulbs are illegal, check the tech specs carefully.

No legal route to doing this, the projector lamps in bulb units are completely different in order to spread softer light IIRC.
I just changed my bulbs to +150%, possibly +200% ones, not the same thing but a huge difference over standard bulbs

Which bulbs did you get? Definitely need something better than stock. The Mrs BMWs LEDs are amazing in comparison
