Message	because I have a hard time justifying a $400 expenditure for lighting. Then again, I can continue getting silverstars & end up spending the same amount hid's would have costin a couple more years. Standard halogens are fine for now, I'll decide in the distant future. BTW, $400 is better than the $1500 a friend of mine spent on JDM xenon's although they do look great.
