Latest recommendation on LED headlight upgrade

Want to upgrade e500 wagon to LEDs
Watched some videos that talked about changes in focal length of standard LED bulbs affecting performance
What is the latest recommendation for upgrading both low and high beams to LED?

I think this site should be trustful and informative.

I bought KATANA at Amazon based on their current recommendation, they call it "THE BEST VALUE LED KIT FOR PROJECTORS".

I installed them based on several Youtube Videos. The space is very tight, but I did not need to remove any parts from engine compartment while installing. Adapters are required. My ones from Amazon worked fine, but the openings is still a little small and I needed to Dremel it just a little bit.

The external box of the LED light is dancing in the headlight casing, so I taped it in the case with adhesive fastener tape.
Looks fine for now, but I don't know how stable it is. Anyone has a better idea?

Very bright. Even and accurate dispersion. 30min job.
