Hids will still outperform leds but slim leds wont need dustcap modifying.

Check Nineo from Amazon. Both 9005 (Hi-beams) and H11 (low beam) looks and works exactly the same as Supernova V.4 for the fraction of the cost. The color, beam pattern and output even drivers or wire protecting sleeves are identical.
I had H11 and 9005 bulbs side by side and the only difference other then price is the finish color. Supernova V.4 H11 is bright silver, where 9005 is also silver but has much darker finish. Both 9005 & H11 from Nineo are black.
Also, Supernova V.4 (Hi-beams) came with wrong locking ring with much narrower tabs where Nineo 9005 came with proper one matching OEM tabs (9005/HB3).
