When I first bought my car I couldn't see a damn thing with the stockers. Went with the Silverstars and it just got worse. I waited a while and found the sale for the HID kit and went with that. I have to say it's bang for buck. I have very bad vision which demands light to have a clear view of ANYTHING. The minute I got the HELIOS kit it was like night and day. I read part of the link MAN but regardless of what that says I still see MUCH better with the HID bulbs than the stockers....that's coming from someone in Florida were it is raining all the time...including now.
PS-I cheat in the rain, I have yellow fogs and yellow bulbs..
