LED Headlight Options

So my parking lights melted into the housing and is throwing the light error. I ended up buying the spec d tuning headlamps and wondering if anyone can guide in the right direction which led bulbs used to replace driving, fogs, and brights which won’t throw an error or flicker? Just to preface, I had Stock bi-xenons prior and bought wiring to switch to halogens and would like to run led lighting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the directional bi-xenons on my '14 and they are by far the best headlights I've ever had... why, may I ask, are you going through all this conversion headache over one ruined marker light? If/when mine grenade I plan to go right back with OEM replacements regardless of the cost.

My car is a 2011 prefacelift so might differ. The issue is these marker lights heat up and melt the bulb into the wiring and socket. I took it apart and there were two which melted. One of which took a chunk of the housing. I don’t want to keep having to go through this process again and again hence the work around. I know the hid lumens will be higher than led but I’ll take a slight downgrade to never have to fiddle with the lights again.

I retract my question :-)

Hopefully the other pre-FL guys will chime in with what they've done if it's common.
