Default LED vs HID Headlight Bulbs

Hi. Has anyone installed LED headlight bulbs on their Accord? I have a 2007 & 2000.

A few months ago I got HID kits 9005-55w/9006-35w. They fit both models. I ended up putting it on the 2000 because it has no DRL. The DRL does not work with the 9006 and I was not interested in running wires to the battery to make it work. Anyway, I like the light s a lot. The 35w is just right for the low beam. The 55w Hi beam might be a tad bright so I don't use it that often.

The only thing I don't like with the HID is the the few seconds it takes to be fully bright. I figured about 10 sec. Because of this you can't 'flash' the brights.

Right now I am looking in to getting LED headlights for the 07. I see a lot of 9005/9006 on eBay but I don't know if they will be bright enough. Also see the assemblies (projectors and halo's) from places like K2motors and Protuning but still go back to the same question. I've tried calling them but on hold too long.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
