2013 Sport
So what is everyone using for brighter headlights???
I like LED as the run cooler and take less power.

Unless you have the correct housings for it, LEDs won't work. LEDs simply cannot match the same light distribution as a halogen bulb so they'll produce hotspots if installed in headlight housings designed for halogen bulbs. They might look brighter, but the light won't be properly focused. Think of it like when you compare a spot light to a flood light. Headlights should be more like a spotlight, focusing the lighting forward and toward the road. LEDs in a halogen housing will be more like a floodlight, throwing light all over the place in front of you, but not focusing it down road where it needs to be. Oncoming traffic will be blinded by the scattered and unfocused light, and you, the driver, will have less usable light because it's being thrown in all different directions rather than where it needs to be.

Your best bet is either mini projectors: https://roadmanners.shop/products/h4...tor-headlights

Or a full HID/LED projector retrofit: $$$$
