That is just an LED kit. Where does it say that it alters the beam pattern of the halogen housing?
I don't think some of here know how a halogen housing works. The reason why it is scattered the way it is in a halogen housing is due to the low light output of a halogen bulb therefore it is able to reflect upward without blinding people. If you put a brighter bulb ,such as an HID or LED bulb, then the reflector in the housing that are pointing upward will cause the light to scatter upward blinding oncoming drivers. It has nothing to do with the beam pattern of the bulb because it is the beam pattern of the reflectors in the halogen housing that cause this issue. Hence the reason why it is illegal to put a brighter bulb such as an HID or LED bulb in a halogen housing.
You asked for a link to a street legal LED kit. This one says it is street legal.
But that is not street legal to be put in a halogen housing. Maybe in a projector housing made for HID/LED bulbs, but not a halogen housing. In fact, the picture of the different colors shows a projector style housing, not a halogen housing.
Send that link to your local state highway department and tell them you are putting it in a halogen housing and see what they say.
