Suggestions/Recommendations for replacing 2003 G500 headlamps

I have the standard headlamps on a MY 2003 G500 and wish to replace them with something better than stock. Does anyone have any recommendations for something aftermarket. Would really like something plug and play. Prefer not to have to do a lot of changes/wiring. Also wish to remain legal re: do not care to blind other drivers with noncompliant aftermarket headlamps. Thank you.

RE: Suggestions/Recommendations for replacing 2003 G500 headlamps

I replaced my 2003 G500 headlamps with J.W. Speaker Model 8700 Evo 2 Dual Burn LED headlamps nearly 3 years ago. I really like them. I initially had CANbus errors with just the passenger light (for some reason), but a load resister took care of it. Interestingly, the lights still worked perfectly even with the error and no load resistors (unlike other bulbs on the G).
