That's awesome, I didn't know they had a store so close to me. I'll definitely have to go check it out

actually looks like a decent kit for what it is.  Really projects some useable light.
Definitely much better than before!

From the picture its probably one of the lower K numbers.  From that picture, and my computer monitor, it looks like what my Mazda has stock which is 3700k so its probably 4300K.  Everyone wants to go higher number, but you can't see as well when you go higher, especially in the rain.
My friend told me the temperature, but I forgot - I think it's either 5000K or 6000K, not too high for sure.
Actually I didn't want to go higher, it's all about practicality - just wanted to see better in the dark, and the white color seems to be the best for that.

How is the vertical cutoff?

Post up a pic against a garage door or along side a set of cedar hedges or something.
Here it is:


It's from a distance of about 5 meters. Didn't have a measuring tape with me, measured the wall on the next day. Smiley
How do you think is it? Not too bad for oncoming traffic?
