They do look very blue, cameras do funny things when they have lights blasting at them

Certainly not that blue to the human eye

Cant find the pics of the before, but to give you an idea, the main headlights were the same as the sidelights in brightness

no mate, its a complete change

You keep your actual headlights, but you change the bulbs, need to connect to the battery and have to install ballasts, hence the instals you see where people take off the bumper

hello mate, havent seen you on here for a while.

yes I have had them on for a year, nearly to the day. Installed them about the 29th dec 2006. Been pretty good so far, though one of the bulbs did keep on falling out and I have lost high beam in the right hand one. But apart from all that,been great.

The grey air ducts were just done on whim. I had the black or dbm ones for ages but decided to redo them myself and chose silver for a change.

Everything you need is in the kit (bulbs, ballasts and wiring kit).

Not hard to install and doesn't take long

Here is one photo of my Yamaha Fjr part way through fitting the new super slim Hids to show difference, between halogen 55w and 35w Xenon
[img=http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8244/dscf3152jq3.th.jpg][img=http://img254.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif]
All fitted nicely into the little gaps in the body work.
