Looking for Halogen bulbs upgrade - Xenon look

[Norretal]

Well, I bought the HID's recommended and eventually fitted them and I'm very happy with the results, much better than "upgrade bulbs" that I tried for a similar cost. The only problem now is the poor sidelights, as discussed on other threads. There seems to be much debate about the preferred option, based on reliability mainly, has anyone tried any LED's or an alternative upgrade that has proved reliable, and satisfactory in terms of looks, and is also reasonable regarding cost?

Thanks in advance
