What do you guys think of this interior Xenon bulb package?!?
 
I saw these on eBay. Are they any good? I've never seen the difference between these and factory color. Are they worth swapping out? Thx in advance. Rob

It looks good, but really poor visibilty. I had it in my car for over 2 years now so far only 1 bulb is out and they dont carry any spare, so you have to get another WHOLE set just to replace one bulb.

btw you can get it cheap on other site, do a search on it.

Is this an easy install? or will there be a lot of taking things apart?

The point of these bulbs if for the color rendition. However, due to the color the eye perceives it as brighter but your depth perception and contrast when looking at/for objects in the car are greatly reduced compared to stock.
