    I'm not trying to get you to change your mind. I just want you to be sure cuz I got 4300 one time and sent them back cuz I like the more whiter and some tinges of blue to bulbs. Yes you can get them behind shrouds like Troy or on the from like I do. The power is up to you, you can wire them to a switch, I splice them into my parking light so the halos are on when my parking lights come on

    Its okay we all had to learn.

    The "parking lights" are the lights that come on with the first click of that dial on the steering wheel. Aka your corner lights and the dim glow of the brake lights. You would have to do it yourself, you would splice into the parking lights power and ground cable.

    I wish I would have wired it separate because i want to flip it on whenever i want without corners and dim glow of brakes come on.

    Also, do you have daytime running lights?

    I like the color changing ones. I splice them into parking lights but I can power them off with remote

    This is 4500k. I had to reseat my bulb after this pic due to the hotspot on the right one. Also, it needed to be more angled up on the driverside headlight. Lessons learned...

    It was crazy seeing the difference.. Before i wondered if they were even on at night.. Now I see everything! I haven't even been flashed by other drivers yet so the brightness is definitely directed away from them. brights are crazy, i had someone drive my truck while i drove by in another vehicle and brights are VERY bright haha.
