So what's your impression driving them??? I'm guessing they are a lot brighter, but are they sharp or are they more like a flood light?

Hate to burst your bubble but I think they are asking Cummins, he did start the post and those are his pictures.

Havent noticed any glare. Just alot of fog the night i took the pics. My inpressions driving with them are they light up all road signs/reflectors, road paint, etc... 3 times better. There does seam to be a beam not a flood because i was able to aim them quite easily. Will take more pics sunday night if its clear! and yess they are 8k bulbs
