The high beam will suffer noticeable loss of throw when compared to stock 4300K, but you'll still be able to get by. I do notice my driver side bulb upon start-up flickers two times to a red color, and I assume it's the red burner core (unique to Philips) that is being vaporized inside the bulb casing upon warm up. I don't think this is the flicker problem people are facing when the bulbs fail to ignite at all.

Overall, good investment and the lights add positive aesthetics.
Thanks for the review.. Now we need some pics !!! The bulbs will colorshift after a while of being on .. Probably get a tinge of blue in them.
