Yes. They are not LEDs, they are projectors shaped like large LEDs. It still uses HID bulbs.

one bulb. It uses the same D2S as other projectors. It's just that the Q45 has 7 little lens instead of one by one

I should have been clearer. When I said "bulbs," I meant one for each headlight, not one for each lens.
