"It was fucking cool ass purple."

But they explode.

"Bright and with a cool purple tint and i got them for i think 25 included shipping off ebay."

But they blow up when you turn them on.

"I would suggest them for price, warrenty and awesome color!!!!!"

But they shatter to pieces when you flip the knob.


6509, hehehe....

Just in case you weren't sure, do you know that you should NOT touch the glass part of the bulbs? If you leave even the slightest finger print on the glass it will heat up and shatter.

Would you take a picture of them on at night so that the rest of us can see what they look like? (after you get the new set, of course)

You have to be carefull because some brands of the xenon bulbs get so hot that they will burn right through the wires in your headlights

i bet it would be cool to have the xenon blue lights and purple ones in the headlights, so you can have the purples/blues when running the low beams and the other when driving with the highs :-)
