LED High beam/DRL swap

Looking to swap out my stock halogens for LEDs but have concerns since the stock are dual stage bulbs.

Anyone have luck doing this?
I am a fan of Auxbeam and swapped my low beams for their H11 F16 model seamlessly.

Most LEDs will result in poorer performance and blind oncoming traffic, but it’ll have a color tone that’ll look nice.

That's kinda why I posted, I want the brightness and look without the performance loss/loss of DRL vs high beam

Maybe someone has a bulb that just happen to be the perfect length. I would look at Headlight Revolution for comparison videos or something.
