i got the same ones, in my opinion using the stock connection doesn't make that much of a difference.

I don't think so either. As for the color, it'll be readily apparent to other drivers that they are HIDs but they're not ricey in any way.

I got the same 6000k ones for my lows and some 3000k Honda V-Tec aZn ricer bulbs for my fogs. It looks like a golden aura around my bright white lows on the ground, hahahah. But my experience with these HID's were that my passenger side low beam would not turn on for some weird reason. But it is just fine now. I rechecked all the cables and everything and it was fine so it could have just been some fuse glitch.

I've got the VVMEs with 4300Ks. I haven't seen any issue at all with them. Thought one of them was out yesterday morning, but then realized it was just a funky reflection off of the vehicle in front of me. Got behind another car just to reconfirm. LOL

How much did those 3000k ricer bulbs cost you, jeffsf? I'm guessing it was a whole kit. Are you happy with them?
