Default Anyone ever try these PIAA?

I was thinking of geting a pair of Super plasma 5000K PIAA. Are they worth the money? Did anyone ever see them before?

I had them in the headlights and the foglights of the GS. IMO, save your money up and purchase an HID kit. The bulbs will cost you 1/4 of the cost of an HID kit. Just my $0.02

I just removed the PIAA Super Plasmas from my Acura CL and they were nice but no where near as good as real HID's. They were a little pink but bright for halogens. They lasted 11 months. I'm saving for the 6000k Philips HID kit for both of my cars now.
