why go from 4300k to 8000k, it must be very purple. You should have tried the 6000k, that would be a bit bluer without losing much light output. As far as the problems was the base of the 8000k bulbs the same as OEM?

got the same problem with the VSC,, just plug back the PLUG right next to the intake and airbox. Remember to reset the battery for one or two minutes.
