why break it? why not just trade it with the people that have the claer foglights already and want to convert to yellow foglights. it would help both parties and save some trouble

I just got these for my Honda and will probably buy a set for my mom's RX:


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cg...375044&r=0&t=0

I LOVE the way these headlights look. They are the closest thing to HID I have seen yet and I have seen about 8-10 pairs of headlight "HID" bulbs and NONE of them were under $25.

Plus, they have a 10 year warrenty against burning out and even dimming and their less then $17!

The auction I set up is for the 9006 bulbs. If anyone wants bulbs go on ebay and look for the seller: www.plasmalights.com

I can not say enough how much I love these

Good Luck

These bulbs are almost too good to be true. 5000k color temperature!!! That is higher than our HIDs. And less than $40 a pair? I'm feeling a little skeptical. How long have you had these, have you had any problems with them? And it's also 100W too, which is much higher than the stock wattage. Would such a high wattage damage the wiring harness?

the blues look killer on the lexus...i would like to switch to them. do i need hid lights or do you think they'd look okay w/ normals. speaking of hid too, and forgive me for my lack of knowledge, but i've seen all kinds of prices on them. could you tell me what manufacturer and model is preferred and who's got the best price INYO (in your opinion). thanks.
