They are. HID's are going away and LED's are the future. That said, I am not impressed with the output of these as they claim 6000 Lumens each and there's no way.
I have a two sets of Rigid auxillary lights, spots and floods and they're rated at 3500L's each and they smoke thses. No contest.

 

I agree with you on that man. LED's are the future, but these (on the market currently) $50 drop in LED bulbs guys put in, and think simply because they are "whiter/brighter" than stock, that they are throwing more light, simply isnt true. Comparing my stock 2015 projector housings with a 55w 5000k HID vs the 2016-2017 half ton LED's that I have in there now, there is no comparison. The projector and HID in this scenario is far greater. But youre right-one day this will change when aftermarket LED technology fully supercedes HID's

Mine has the H11 lows and the 9005 high beams. All 4 stay on with high beam function.
I had HIDs on my Audi S4 years ago and loved them. Just worry about the packaging and room for the ballast and stuff on these trucks.
As for fitment on LED heat sinks, you can get the dust cover for the low beams on the Silverado and trim the tabs to use on the high beam and it works as they are a deeper cup. They're almost $50 from a stealership or $32 on line thru GMParts-dot-com.

Did you have any issues with the HID install and what year model is your truck?

i have had a 2015 silverado 1500 and now have a 2015 Sierra 2500hd. Both got the HID treatment as the stock halogens were just terrible.No install issues. Just need to trim the dust covers to feed the wires through-make sure they get sealed up well after to prevent condensation forming inside. My 15 z/28's reflector and halogen setup was actually  even worse so at least terrible lights run in the family lolll
