Yes

This pic was taken when they weren't fully burned in...they are somewhat a bit whiter and has a bit of blue on the cutoff now.

Did you buy resistors as well? If so, you think if i splice the wires it will void warranty in any way?

Xenarc CBI bulbs will emit more bright light than the Morimoto bulbs. I'd spend the extra $$ on Xenarc any day.

I wouldn't consider any other bulb other than the D2S:Osram Xenarc 66240 CBI...well worth the cost and will actually "see" the difference.

D2S: Osram Xenarc 66240 CBI - HID Bulbs - Components

Sick man! I might have to pick a set of these up. I currently have a set from eBay but they blink white and Amber with the turn signal on.
