* I can tell you that
@LightWerkz
told me they'd fit, and offered them as an option for my recent retrofit.
It's a bit pricey but I've bought Morimoto HIDs before and been very impressed. I'd love to know how easy these are to install and the quality of them.
* Can't objectively speak to either. I'd assume the component quality to be good.

Here's a comparo pic of MLED vs IS350 HID provided by
@

. The LEDs have an extreme hotspot, and far less light spread than the IS350s, neither of which appealed to me.
This pic makes the HIDs appear blueish. In fact they are 42-4500K, whereas the LEDs are a VERY bright white, thus the odd contrast. I don't KNOW, but I'd expect these LEDs are going to get you flashed.
IMO, however unlikely, any failure of the LED will require a total re-retrofit as
everything much is self-contained
within the projector. Potentially very expensive! The HID components, which will likely fail 'sooner' than LED, are at least serviceable. $.02.
