Anyone try these interior lights yet?

I have the Xenon set right now and while I like to color, they are not as bright as the OEMs. These claim to be even brighter than the OEMs. Anyone try 'em yet? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ultra...52535224QQrdZ1

Thanks braves - are you saying they're not as bright as OEM?

They may be perceived as being whiter/brighter than stock but the regular bulb of the stock setup will probably allow you to see what you are doing better.

Sometimes white LEDs .... especially those that have a blue tint have a tendency to not display depth and color very well but the human eye thinks it is brighter simply because it is whiter but if you were to take an output test (lumen test) you would most likely find the regular interior lights actually put out more light in a different color spectrum.
