Default LED headlights?

My friend drives a 2013 RX350 with halogen headlights. Looking to switch to LED headlights. Specifically looking at these from Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/OPT7-Headlight-Bulbs-Clear-Arc-Beam/dp/B00VNBDWPK

Has anyone converted their headlights to LED and what was your experience? Or any specific LED brand headlight conversion that you can recommend from experience? We tried HID conversion but headlights flicker.

there's a newer generation of LED headlights that replace the fans with more durable heat sink ribbons and use better quality LEDs.

I think this thread covers LED replacement as this model probably takes the same H11 halogen bulbs as the CT200h (and many others)

I think several folks have had good luck with HID and LED kits from http://www.xenondepot.com/XenonDepot-HID-kits-s/250.htm

@bmwlexus09 - We sell both Xtreme LED headlight kits and Xtreme HID headlight kits.
For the best light output, we still recommend going with a quality HID kit.

This review does a really nice job comparing the differences in light output between Stock, 4300k HID, 5000k HID, and 6000k LED kit:
