I would note that the vvme box says 'made in Japan' on it.....
Really? Show us a pic, the main page looks like mandarin Chinese.

Yeah, I forgot to mention, I think my passenger one is getting ready to die. It's turning a yellow-ish color. I was thinking about just getting the 4300k ones anyway.

You wouldn't be able to tell that it was getting ready to die. They just go, and show no signs. But yeah, just stick with the 4300k ones.

Yes vvme stuff comes from china. Yes you want the H7 bulbs. And they are so cheap because you are looking at the replacement bulbs only, not the kit that includes balasts. the kit is like $70 with shipping. I do'nt think they will work without the vvme balasts.

i wanna know this answer as well... i have factory HID's (4300k) and to be honest with everyone i wanna get the 6000k, i would like a deeper blue tint, i know its not gonna be as bright but i dont think my factory HID's are very bright so maybe these might help a bit.

Yeah, if you already have an HID set up, then replacing the bulbs will be as simple as...replacing the bulbs, provided that you buy the right style. You should be fine going with vvme.com since they sell the real deal, but if you choose another supplier, make sure they're actual xenon bulbs and not "xenon look" bulbs. But since you have factory HIDs, I think your bulb style is D2S which is a little different from H7...you can buy adapters to make them fit snugly, or you can just find D2S bulbs elsewhere. If you emailed vvme.com, I bet that they could get you the right bulb even if they don't advertise it.

I just emailed them, hopefully I can get a response back soon, becuase I have already ordered the H7, and would hate for them to be wrong.
