The colour is very very nice, but do they provide less illumination when viewed behind the wheel?

Default I see a huge difference!

THe 5000k look VERY white, almost clear looking. But as Yoogene said, they don't appear to match the headlights very well. IMO, the ultimate solution would be to leave out the 5000k for now, and order some 5000k bulbs for the low beams.

BTW, those LEDs look great!!! I thought they had a little bit of of blue tinge, but they look to be a perfect match. I may have to guy by a set of them...Also, I switched back to the Hoen Fogs. The 6000k look WAY too blue for me. And I was able to solve my aiming problem, everything is perfect now.
