Um, they do look like that...mine are super bright and white...they do the trick real well...like I said earlier, most people flash me because they think I have my high beams on...[hr]

Try re-aiming your headlights. . . . if people are flashing you, it's for a reason. No one has flashed me with mine on. Once I put them in I made damn sure my lights were properly aimed since they are a lot brighter. Also, if they're pointed too high, you're not getting as much benefit from the brighter bulbs illuminating more of the road.

Cameras, by in large, suck at showing the differences between headlight bulbs. . . especially since the color temps they are at are sometimes beyond the camera's light-differentiating abilities. . . . true, sometimes you'll notice A difference, but until you see them in person, there is no real comparison.

TwilightX is an unknown quantity at this point

Since I had someone hit into my passenger headlight, the thing never aims proper...I've just recently given it a go aiming, and so far so good, but they still need a little tweaking. But yeah, before then, the left one aimed up, so it really pissed people off. I still can't get it right though, now the right one looks dim, and the left is still bright, but not blinding to oncoming traffic anymore.

Mine, in fact, are aimed too low actually! I still get flashed. This 2001 Toyota Camry flashed me, and I showed him whats up with my silverstars and upgraded FULL wiring harness complete w/relays and all. *HIGH BEAMS* [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Can you explain more how you upgraded the wiring harness with relays? I have Silverstars and I thought about getting the CATZ ZETA System, but it's just too expensive. Where did you get the H4 wiring harness with relays and how much did it cost?

the Harness uses thicker wires and connect directly to your battery for better juice to the bulbs, and i think they increase the voltage a little bit to them too.

Get the harness and you will see a difference... your lights will be brighter
