Get'em from www.MobileHID.com in 4300k if you want the most light for your $$, 5000k if you have to have that slight European blue tint look.

End of discussion, place your order now.

if he orders it from www.mobilehid.com instead of www.mobilehid.com/scionlife.htm he will pay $80 more than he needs to (normal price is $250 and scionlife pricing is $170)

i recommend Operatic's 3BSpec kit - $130 overnight shipped. customer service that rivals the best of the best.

There are two reasons why I recommend the MobileHID over any others:
1) Lifetime warranty (that he backs himself, and doesn't depend upon manufacturer)
2) Best customer service I have seen from any seller/retailer

i'm not contending, just saying i recommend operatic since i got his kit and have had a good experience that's all. this stuff is always subjective anyway.

They may look white from behind the wheel, but at night when people are driving toward you they will definitely see a blue tint to the light... and so will the police. I'm not saying you WILL get pulled over, but in California you certainly COULD get pulled over.

Glad you like them, that's all that really counts.
