Question looking for experience with LED bulbs on 2013 Fit

hello all,
I recently purchased a 2003 Fit Base

I drive in the dark alot, and the headlights are a bit lacking

I'm thinking about an LED upgrade....
(I've done LED's on my last 3 cars, but they all had the "fish eye" lenses in the low beams)
do the LED replacements still have a clean cutoff on low beam with the reflector style housings? (I dont want to be blinding oncoming traffic)
do I need to disable the DRL's? (since I believe the DRL's are High Beams on low power)

any other info/experience would be appreciated

I've tried LEDs, the problem is the angle they sit in the housing isn't straight (at least in my case) the LEDs were sitting at a 45 degree angle so the cut off was all messed up

The only thing I can think of that can solve that would be to get quartz glass LEDs that have 360 degree beam
