How high wattage you want to go ?
How many $ do you want to spend?
There are LED's available from Luxeon in 1, 3 & 5 Watt & some modules w 3 LED's each with a 50mm diameter & lens that will run you $12 - 50. Models are Star, Star Hexagon & K2. You can also get Ring, Line & Flood from Luxeon
Seoul is another maker of 1,3 & 5 Wattt LEDS. Don't know of their prices but similar to Luxeon.
Osram make one model as well.
You can even get a 10 WATT LED from TT Electronics/Optek Technology these days but they are over $100 ea.
All high wattage LED's will require an additional driver (NOT RESISTOR!)
and a heat sink, both of which cost extra $$.
Here is a link: Led Supply (http://www.ledsupply.com)
Here is a recent post that uses Luxeon 1W LED's: http://www.gaownersclub.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=70438
Not sure what you want to use them for in the headlight housing but it shouldn't be too hard. Please uses lenses/optics on the LED's so others aren't blinded by them :)

Sounds like BS to me.
They really dont even look like LED's in the photo, they look like white bulbs.
