It is your own responsibility to ensure that the use of the LED retrofit lights complies with applicable local legal requirements

Wordy waffle that equals - not road legal in the UK.
You can get a decent result for much less cost with bulbs like Osam Nightbreakers, their Philips equivalent, etc.

Legality, regardless of its enforceability will become an even bigger issue for headlamps soon

It is on my to do list.

Philips Ultinon Pro 6000 are certified road legal in Germany for K9 Berlingo so it's just a paperwork issue for other countries.
I have them installed in low beams and I get some high beam notifications when the lenses are not completely clean but the view is beautiful, much better than halogens. The cutoff is exactly identical to halogens unlike some random LED plugnplays.

LED bulbs are legal on motorbikes in the UK so long as they do not dazzle others and have the correct pattern. I have an Auxito H4 in my bike and the cut-off is perfect, I also have their bulbs in the side lights on my Berlingo and they are very bright more like DRLs.

Yes it is possible.
I fitted a set of Philips Ultinon Pro 6000.
Direct fit and no error messages on the dash
Very bright

By notification I mean from other drivers, not by dash messages. Should've been more clear
