Has anyone taken delivery with LED Headlights?

I'm trying to determine if they are coming through with the anti-dazzle feature. Very high tech. It kinda says its there in the description but I'd love to hear someone say they actually have it. Reality instead of marketing copy.

Adaptive Highbeam Assist continuously vary the beam pattern to maximize illumination of corners and straightaways, without creating glare for other drivers

I have them in mine and as I have stated in other posts they are fantastic..they light up the road in such a way that visibility is teriffic and they switch so quickly from high beam when a car approaches that its difficult to notice..the transition is seamless

Martin, can you confirm they stay on high beam and just blank out the spot where they detected oncoming headlights or taillights in front?

The Hella video in the thread should give an idea what it should look like.

On my car, when it detects a car ahead, it goes back to low beam mode and switches back when it is all clear. It is fun to watch the first few times.
