LED Headlights
I saw the ad for Audi's LED headlights in the super bowl, and it's definately an interesting concept! I think RIGID light bars have proved to us all that LEDs can hold their own with a good housing, so I would love to see them become more main stream
In answer to your actual question, I don't think anyone sells LED headlights. Unless you're talking about the Recon/Spyder projectors with the 3 LEDs for use in the parking lights

I have LEDs for fog lights (replaces 9006 bulbs). In my opinion, these are good enough to replace 35W fogs, but NOT bright enough to replace 55W headlights. Mind you, these went into the stock housing, which does diffuse the light. It is possible that purpose-built LEDs would have a magnifying lens and a reflector that takes advantage of the side-throwing LEDs, so it IS possible. I haven't seen any aftermarket ones for our trucks yet.

I liked the fact that they were only about 1 watt each, so since I didn't have the fog light prewire, I simply wired them into the parking lights. The shot was taken late in the day (camera phone sux, so all night shots look brighter than they are), so you can get a hint of the color "temperature," same as 6000K HIDs. I think they throw the same amount of light as the stock fogs. They woud be brighter if better lenses were in place of the stock diffused ones. About $20 for the pair off Ebay.
