you just have to hook up 2 pairs of wires then its direct plug and play

if your just using a xenon bulb your fine, its just direct replacement

So you're saying I can buy the 6000K HID for my low beams and fog lights, then buy the xenon bulb for my DRL/high beam lights and it would look good?

What do you guys think?

it would look fine, the high beams wont be as bright as the hids tho, but if your just going for the look then that should be fine

If the DRLs would look brighter than normal (more like HID's) with the xenon halogen bulbs, then it would look good. I'm just not sure if they would be bright like I want them to be. I've been searching all over YouTube for video comparisons of stock halogen vs. xenon bulbs and I can't find a video that compares just that. Alot of them show stock vs. HID, but I already know what that looks like. UGH!

here's the direct link to the bulbs, since the site is a little hard to navigate, they have a few different options.

So why do people buy the whole HID setup, rather than just these bulbs? If they give the same look, why pay the extra money to have a harder install?

For DRL/high beams: 9005 low watts (65), or 9005 high watts (100)?

Thanks for ALL the help, guys!

Because they dont give the same look. and their not near as bright.. Trust me I had them. No matter what ones of those you get they will be a decent white color but thats it.
