Projector LED headlights

I am not sure if this is already known but I guess I didn't pay attention. One of the biggest knocks I had against LED headlights was that they were reflector housing vs HID projectors. I just noticed that the new LED headlights are projectors again.

Remember the light switch has to be on Auto "A" for it to work.

I want them to be the fully automatic headlights that split beams around approaching vehicles. What are the odds that coding can add his to a North American vehicle?
