LOL, :P don't forget that you have an "Auto Dimming Mirror" :P

As for the visibility, I say that on a scale of 1-10, my visibility will be about a 8. The stock HID's were definitely better in terms of visibility. I drove in the fog the other day, and my lights just kept shooting back at me... other than that I think they're well worth it
Someone on my other post said this "6000k is a good compromise betweem looks/function"

I got new PIAA fogs. They match the stock HID's well but i've beent hinking about going 6000 or 8000K. I really like the look of Jesus' HID's and his are 8000K. He says his visibility is the same so I guess I wont know until I drive with them in.

Yea, I'm planning to do my fogs and side markers next. As for the bulbs, I heard the PIAA's turned yellow after a lil. I saw a post here in the NGC section a lil while ago about bulbs called "5-LED bulbs" I liked the look of them on pdjafari's car. And best of all, they run 7$ per bulb if I believe. Seems like pdjafari isn't having any problems with them so I'm down. Here's the link to that thread:

Hey pdjafari if you read this, how's your bulbs doing? are they giving you any problems? I'm going to be ordering some this weekend I think any feedback will help

Jee, his LED's look good to me. I have them sitting in my car right now. Just haven't gotten around to putting them on my car just yet but hopefully this weekend! My PIAA bulbs have turned yellow slightly and I wouldnt waste getting bulbs anyways now if the LED's last longer and remain a good color!
