I love my HID's. Watch your foglight housings though, they will melt some eventually. Mine are slightly mis-shaped and I've put 1500 miles on this car since I've owned it

8000K reduces vision to a point, the 4300K temp is what you would want to mimic stock HIDs from the factory. Aiming does look great though and I am sure it gives you a lot more vision close up!

I have no idea. LandonZ had them for sale for $100 shipped so I bought them, he said they were either 6k or 8k but I would have to say 6k. Easy to install, took me about 10 minutes.

Since I dont have the stock fog lights, Im thinking of getting a set for the fog lights
