LED's should not be used in reflector low beam housing. Someone mentioned halogen housings but that is incorrect. LED's are brighter and not exact filament as halogen and the reflector housing throw its beam towards oncoming drivers. This with the brighter light/less controlled is not a good combo.

However LED's do a great job in projector housings, which also can house halogens. This will take advantage of bright light but will have a top cut of not to blind oncoming traffic.

I use F7 LED's lights in my lows (projector) and highs (reflector) for two years now and have never had anyone flash me but have a very distinctive cut off the is properly aimed. The high beams in the reflector can see into peoples souls though. And is bright but lot of wasted light going everywhere.
