If you search out here I recently posted my results on testing 3 brands of LED headlights in a 1978 and 1993 240. Significant differences exist in the quality of the pattern of light thrown on the road. Choose wisely.

BeamTech are clearly the best I've found, and we have them in Cibie 7" E-codes in the 1978 as well as about 10 other family vehicles. No failures in 5 years. But BeamTech don't offer a bulb for aeronose US lenses such as a 1993. Auxito does and they are OK if a bit flare-y on high beam. A third brand was miserable and I returned them.
