ok i finally got it on. I didn't see 2 plastic pieces in the box to put the 2 wires with the bare leads at the end in.

anyhow, will this melt the housing after extended use?

so i got 4300k bulbs and my leds and xenons look yellower. this is a great mod for 45 bucks.

I thought my 4300k bulbs looked to blue also so I'm considering getting the 3000k bulbs just to see if they match better, which was my whole reason for getting them in the first place.

Bringing back an old thread. Any updates to this with pics? I don't know if I should get the 3000k or the 4300k bulbs. Maybe the color changes as it breaks in?

I've had mine on for about 3/4ths of a year
and they look fine. If I were to get picky I get a different Kelvin bulb to match the LEDS better. I'm not sure if going to a little higher/lower color spectrum would would change it for the better.

4300 k will match LEDs perfectly. I have sold a ton to b8 owners and they are all very satisfied.
