I have 4 Hella conversion lenses, for the bulbs I have 2 bi xenon for the hi/lo and HID for the high. The Hella lenses are glass and have a nice beam pattern so the oncoming traffic is not bothered. Best lights I have had on any of my cars and I've never outran them
Where did you get the kit?
 
I bought this kit from Mikes Montes and it works great;

I have the kit from Mike's as well, they have great beam with standard H4s. I've tried Racesport fanless LEDs with mixed results.
This website explains why the Racesports didn't work very well. Lots of good info here. www.headlightrevolution.com. They also sell a variety of light options for our cars.
I've found a way to adjust the location of my LEDs to offer a much better beam. I'll try to get some pics soon to show what I did, it verifies what the guy from HR says about the importance of filament placement.

The LED technology has come along way in the last few years.

You don't have to spend so much, and have really bright headlights. But if it makes you happy .....

bright isn't the only thing I was interested in, I wanted a good pattern to point the bright light in the right direction.
Yep, remember that capsule was designed for the filament to be a specific location , just throwing a bunch of light in it doesn’t make it better.
