$400 for HIDs? Look in the sponsored section. You will find them for WAAAY cheaper.

I wouldn't get Luminics though. I hear they're a bad company to deal with.

it might be brighter but not for a good reason. cheap bulbs will put strain on your's and others eyes.

Actually my '08 has great visibility with HID's. Even when the projectors had the original halogen bulbs in them they had a horrible cut-off. With the HID kit in I adjusted the hight of the cut-off to avoid glare. The retarded SONAR ebay projectors I had on my Ram even had a better cut-off than the stock '08 tC headlights.
