those should work, just remember they wont be as bright and u lose ur high beam function. they will definitely look good though. i got me a different one but urs will be a bit brighter then mines. i use the 1 cree led for my drls so they are not bright.

Is there anything you can use to get the same effect while keeping your high beams?

Do you need to buy the DRL module and relay harness for our cars?

Nope, DRL are the same as the highbeams.

Yes, you have to buy a DRL module in order for the LED bulb to work correctly and not flicker, its $10 per module if you get them from Vleds.

unless they're bi-xenon, is there a point to having highbeams if you already have HIDs?
