Rep Power: 787 well first off, yea lots of glare and thats the worst brand you could buy. Second, there is no way thats 10000k. it would be pure color purple/blue and very dim. those pics look more like 4300k maybe 5000k. so they ripped you off.

Rep Power: 254 Dear New Hid Guy, please consider retrofitting, you will get caught eventually with those things as well as fry your stock harness. Do the right thing.

Rep Power: 301 well that is a garage shot at my house, and from looking at 5000k to 10k, i DONT think i was ripped off! i know of plenty ppl arpund atl, to have them not fry a harness YET, but a retrofit will be considered, and i love them, a yard shot or something will later show a better color rather than the glare of a white garage that it was in!

Rep Power: 0 sorry bud. there is absolutely no way that 10000k. theres is nothing in this world that could convince me that it is. my buddy has a 6000k kit on his rsx and its twice as blue as that. 10000k should be dark blue/purple dude.
i guess its possible its just a shitty kit and they give what they call 10000k... but i have another buddy with 12000k on his A4 and its like thick dark purple... so either u got jipped or its just a shitty as s kit.

Rep Power: 254 I almost feel bad, for the all mean comments, dude I'm so against plug~n~play kits, that I'd even hook you up with a free retrofitt, just buy the parts and send them to me. $hit.

You'll need a wireharness. You'll spare your electrical system over time. Not sure if this kit includes one. BTW, try and stick with oem parts.
