Question LED Headlights for Countryman '12

Hi all. Does anyone have experience with installing these LED headlights on their R60? Thinking about purchasing this item, but want to know if I can just plug and play without any error codes. I don't want to mess around with coding and I don't know anything about wiring, electricity, etc.

generally the light from led bulbs does not emit the same way as a halogen bulb and the reflector does not project the correct beam/spread/cutoff as a standard bulb. heat also remains a very big issue. some bulbs have mini fans built into them that attempt to cool the unit, but these fans die rather quickly shortly followed by an over heated diode. you'd probably be better off finding a hid conversion.
