gad, I can't believe I got that wrong.. brother had the '69cj R-code which was more our style (and 1 of 14 white int under black, lol.. no fan o' blue, he)

yeah, I'm obviously no fan o' swapping these bulbs, but uhmm.. 800 percent?
if anyone reading this has a set, I'd love to hear about life-span and any differences that you know of.

off to read..

SOOoo.. fishcake sent a pair of replacements (Simon is gone) and of course, they didn't fit - sent flange-less D2C to replace I Dunno what, as it wasn't listed on my invoice. Just know I need flanges on MY bulbs for MY depos bought from them (D2S, D2R?).

grrrr...

you guessed it, no response to emails now.. told stealer to just install what they had - all they had was 4K.. I cain't win..

ECS, if you read this - WHY are the bulbs so Much more expensive? I ordered your extra white hi-beams so I can live with the DRLs (back-ordered after I ordered them <sigh>), but couldn't find much on the difference between uhmm.. knock-off bulbs and O.M.G. name-brand bulbs.
Thanks for any guidance.
