it's not slim bulbs, it's the ballasts that are slim to be easier to fit places

The first one is my brights. They look blue in the pic but when I say terrible light output I mean when your driving they're kinda dim. Like its sorta hard to see. I was just wonderin if I got the kit would it be any different

No there's not a difference just as he stated above the ballast is slimmer mounting purpose only a lot of people use slim ballast on a motorcycle to hide it easier

idk if itll help with that since you dont have HID bulbs. do you have stock headlights? that could be why it's kind if dim, I upgraded to lightning lenses an the light output is 100% better!
