    It used to be (3 years ago?) that even though they were bright, LEDs wouldn't "throw" anywhere near as far as HIDs.
    Technology has caught up a lot and while HIDs will still put more light further down range - it's getting almost too close to call.

    This is Isleen's front look.
    All SoCal LEDs except the steerable light under the low beams - that's a WIR police LED bar.

    They light up EVERYTHING.

    And if she REALLY wants to be seen?
