the ad sounds too good to be true. make sure you buy the bulbs that fit your car. you have 9006 and 9005 bulbs. i forget which is the lowbeam bulb.... this ebayer neglects to list this important detail.

he also says he sells a bunch yet on ebay, he only lists one kit. i'd be weary as there is no photo of the original packaging.

Look at the kelvin temperature as well. 5000 -6000 are the brightest (white) light... 7500 are blueish, 9000k are violet.

good luck to ya.

Horrible. What a sketchy seller. His kits are obviously used and not guaranteed.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by IntEGNYC &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Look at the kelvin temperature as well. 5000 -6000 are the brightest (white) light... 7500 are blueish, 9000k are violet.

</TD></TR></TABLE>

4100-4300K will give the brightest light output.
