I've gone the other way, I have a set of PIAA ion yellow 194's in my city light.
I also have HID low / Fog lights. I have the same MTEC HID kits that I sell and I have to be honest its a HUGE difference at night.
I have been thinking of adding an HID kit to the High Beams also, since I do a lot of night driving from Miami to Orlando.

Some opt for the Polarg M6 instead because they are brighter. However, they do operate at a higher wattage so you run the risk of blowing up the bulb or melting harnesses, etc.

I know these pics are late so I apologize.
Stock:
Polarg M4s:
For some reason the bulbs look brighter in the first pic than they really are in person. The second one is most representative of how they actually look...very dim.
You can also see the difference in colors. At startup the M4s look almost greenish but then even out to a pink/purple color after they have been on for a while. The stock outer HIDs warm up a slight purple color and then turn white. The colors could pass off and I would probably let it slide if the M4s were brighter but they're too dim and not quite right for my tastes.
Still awaiting the LED set...hopefully theyll be here tomorrow.
