Default MTEC Racing Halogen Bulbs - Worth installing them?

I just got a set of these from my cousin. He got them for $20 on eBay for his Audi TT. They weren't blue enough for him so he gave them to me for free. Only a few words are in english on the box. Are they worth installing?

yeah.. 4350K would be the same color output as OEM HID.. but something tells me they wont be.. blue tinted bulbs = blue light output..

I just need to know if I should bother installing them. I was planning on spraypainting my headlights soon, and while I'm there, I could install those.

Just install them and see if you like them, it only takes 5 minutes.

I actually just did a 9005 conversion with those bulbs. Surprisely, they look very white, much more than the Cool Blue. They are not blue at all, just white. Of course, the light output is less than stock, but the high beam conversion helps. I actually like them.....maybe I'm just a ricer.
