    You should keep them on for now. I really hate those rice lights when I am driving though, they distract me. Even the HID's distract me, but they are pretty cool lights and make your car look 'bling bling'

    Just wait until they burn out like szw suggested.
    I know you don't smoke weed. I know this. But I'm gonna git you high today. 'cause it's Friday, you ain't got no job, and you ain't got shit to do!

    hahaha. i don't think they are going to burn out. i've had these stupid blubs for 2 years now. the cheapest ones too. euro lites. i guess i can wait till one burns out then swap back some stock ones.

    They're pretty bright but they don't last worth a shit. My ML had them in since march and they stopped working last week. Only one bulb was burnt out too. The other just stopped working.

    the euro lites i have are pretty white. i think they make blue ones too. i've put some thought into getting real HID's. but it cost a lot of $$$ and i lose my high's.

    I top out at 215-220km/h on the front straight, so I need an extra oomph to go faster. Haha... no, I am thinking of getting some whiter/slightly blue bulbs for foglights.

    You should get it just to say you have it and keep yourself happy! But if you have HID headlights and foglights, oh shit, people are going to be seeing rainbows and will crash.
