I have been waiting for someone to come out with a drop in LED headlight replacement that is DOT approved. finally someone had done it. They are expensive but the results are amazing! First gen guys they haven't forgotten about you. In fact they developed the round version first, then developed the 5"X7". Tell me what you think. I may have to get some considering half the driving I do is in the dark. Although they are quite expensive, I probably wouldn't spring for the $500 price if it wasn't my D.D. I "borrowed" these pics from the North American XJ Association forum. They show the lighting output compared to a halogen beam. Pretty impressive. At low beam these will draw a mere 1.8 amps while at full high beam they draw only 3.6 amps. I think these numbers may for each lamp. But still! pretty low draw for that kind of output, and the life expectancy of LED's is usually in 50,000 hour range. 

Um idk where you gathered the $500 price tag but on their site they list them at $279
