Lots of cheap LED types around, but the really good ones are NOT cheap.

So, halogens are brighter than LEDs?
I had an led daymaker on my harley that was pretty bright.

Yup, Most LED HL "upgrades" for cars are crap and illegal in US and many other countries.

Trunklite and other make Legal LED upgrades but nearly all cost ~ $300 or more.
One cheap LED HL claim is legal and tested to meet DOT rules but made to be cheap and likely won't last long.

Trucklite P/N 27009 and other conversion kit uses 9003 bulbs and work sim to most H6054 above basic offers.
And Can have same problems when loaded w/ SilverStar and other hotter bulbs.

⚠️ Warning: If your current HL are dim or "yellow" replacing Bulbs often won't help or may seem to help but burn up iffy wiring etc. and even cause a car fire as they eat more power.

See my Cave, Headlights

Note: Some Fiero and many old cars Still have standard non-halogen HL. Most GM vehicles w/ Sealed Beams got GUIDE 6053 or 6052 bulbs from the factory made whatever model. (GUIDE name is upper left front next to 2B) More "poof" is you won't see the small Halogen Bulb inside them looking thru the lens but a Metal "disk" to shape light output for low beam.
Even the Basic "Cheap" Halogen Sealed Beams from Sylvania et al are way better then those.
