I'm running some generic-Chinese H1 LEDs that I found off of Amazon. The color, brightness, and spread are great, but getting them installed was a bit of a faff. You'll have to get an adapter to fit it into the H1 socket; the LED bulb doesn't have those "teeth" that align the bulb with the socket and that the metal spring holds down, so without the adapter, it's just loose in the socket.
I have these bulbs for my low beams, using this adapter that I shaved down to fit with a dremel. Then I have these for my high beams.
But if you don't want to deal with that headache like I did for LED bulbs, these bulbs from PIAA were great, and lasted well over a year for me; they were still working when I swapped them out for the LEDs.
I'm a big fan of PIAA; I have their bulbs, wipers, and fog lamps across all my cars.
A good daily pad that I recommend are the Hawk HPS; available from TireRack with very fast shipping (one-day depending on where you live). These are an all-around excellent OEM+ pad, with low noise, low dust, and consistent bite. Hawk HP+ are more aggressive but can be daily driven, just prepare for the extra dust; I use these as my track pads.
Stainless steel lines all do the same thing, so unless you're a whore for JDM stuff like I am, the Goodrich lines (which are also on TireRack) are excellent value. As for fluid, Motul RBF660 is everyone's go-to and worked great for me, but I've found Project Mu 335 to be just better overall and cost roughly the same.
They are just slightly thicker but by millimeters. The same effect can be achieved using Strut King's aluminum pedal inserts (just less OG), but I don't think it'll be noticeable as far as ergonomics go. They're really for texture/appearance.
Recently got these for my 2016 SV low beams. https://www.amazon.com/HIKARI-Headlight-Conversion-Adjustable-Warranty/dp/B07PZC16SF/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_263_t_0/134-2941802-6778421?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0AFYQ9PS61608M7M75EV
So far so good. I know there's brighter out there, but at $37 for 2 bulbs, they're great. Big improvement over stock halogens. Planning on getting more for high beams soon. They are a really crisp white light.
