FM is having a group buy on these, just wondering if anyone has them, and their thoughts. A pair for $50 seems like even a small improvement would be worth it.

makes a huge difference, even with shitty $4 bulbs. sucks they need so many people.

If I didn't already have a set of Hella's I'd be all over it. For sure worth $50. Light is put on the road SO much better and has a very sharp cut-off similar to HID's. At least the Hella's do, I suppose the Bosch are similar. I'm running 100W Hella bulbs and I have more light available than some HID setups I have seen.

They don't blind unless your beam is crap. With the e-code the light goes on the road, so I've never had a high beam flash. With the cut off being so sharp, you either get light or you don't. Glare is very very minimal, as opposed to a lot of HID's I see (especially after market with people using stock reflectors/lenses) that look like welding arcs coming at you. I had one guy come at me one night with those really blue HID's in a poorly executed install on a tall truck. I literally had to come to a near stop in the middle of the road, I couldn't see ****. I was ready to pull a u-turn and chase him down, but I kept my cool. I could literally see his lights coming 30 seconds before I actually saw him. I was at the foot of a 1/2 mile long up hill stretch and he was around a 40 degree turn at the top, and probably also about 1/4-1/2 mile down another straight away. ******* light ricers. I curse them all!
