Can you give an update on the LED headlights? I'm considering them for my much more fuel-thirsty Accord which has the electrical system powered entirely by deep cycle batteries.

I'm a bit concerned about the beam pattern. Is the horizontal cutoff not as clean and not as effective as a normal halogen bulb? Light spraying upwards some?

Thanks!
