    Ummmmm, yeah, just slightly lol.

    The only thing I knew for alcertain with them was the harness was morimoto and the lights were kensun.

    The ballasts were ynlabeled and a cheap cast aluminum body, the lenses were sealed with clear silicone etc...

    They work, but quality was shit all around.

    Just goes to show what time and money will do. Can't wait to get them installed. Glad I have to work tomorrow or I'd be out there right now stripping the front end off.

    Hit 63 degrees today, inch of sbow possible in the morning.

    Cool ma. I never mix and match and give unbranded parts. I provide all morimoto parts with warranty!

    This may be a bit much to ask.. is there a difference between morimoto bulbs and osram?

    Does the ballast morimoto vs whatever matter?

    Well they provide the ballasts for Toyota like the LS and RX, which are top notch projectors so there's nothing wrong with them. Can't go wrong with either.

    Not yet, have had perfect weather to do so but took advantage of it by working on the boat in hopes of avoiding having to do so next month.

    Hoping to gt to it soon though, Spring Forwars is coming up, that will give me an additional hour after work. Just don't want to attempt it right now with only having an hour to get it done after work.

    Ultimately this but figured there would be too much detail required.
