    Glad you like them! Did you get to install the Hi/Lo Harness? They make a world of difference especially if you are in an area that is completely dark. :D

    You know, not as bright as I had hoped. I ordered only the low beam as i seem to remember these being brighter before. But, John has the hi/low harness that I might try out. I figure i will prob need to do the HID upgrade to the fogs too.

    the projectors disperse the light more evenly and give a better spread and reduce the hid glare from what i understand..

    HID fogs are nice but you need to be careful and aim them lower then how they come from the factory. I have 35W, 4K yellow HID fogs and they are super bright. I havent been high beamed yet but I've noticed people covering my light beam as I am passing them in there driver side mirrors.:eek:
