@msallf150.. the glare is only because i moved the camera while taking it not a good picture.. you could even look at the house's lights they also have glare. @mstr-p dont worry we got the upgrade also except for him we got 6000k..... @blacknight87 yes i wanted the blueish tint.

Just some info, they are not HIDS they are brighter bluer halogens. HIDS cost hundreds each. The silvania version are silverstars. The brighter halogens do work very well however they suffer fron shortened life "the light that shines brighter shines shorter" could have saved install, its an easy DIY.
True HIDS require installation of ballast and light housing mods usually runs into 500 bucks plus for just the headlights. Personally I dont recommend true aftermarket HIDS, whiter halogens however are a good buy.
