The Civic Led lamps are reflector lighting so it's really not the best for output.I think one of the reasons why the OEM ones are rated poor is because of the excessive glare. The OEM LEDs on the civic actually throw light further down the road than the ILX's.

I'm not sure how that website gets the figures but from real world experience having both of those cars personally, the ILX headlamps shine farther and brighter than the Type R lamps.
