Output will take on a more white/blue tint at 5500-6500K.

During installation you may not be able to fit that power plug and inline
power adapter within the small allowable space behind the headlight
when mounted inside the light bucket. This will facilitate mounting
the power adapter and plug-in on the outside of the light bucket.
Not a big deal, just be prepared to McGyver an acceptable solution.

Once installed you will certainly enjoy the improvement.

Best of luck.
Thanks. I called and talked to a tech. The headlights are rated at 1800 lumens, although that doesn't mean a whole lot as beam pattern and resulting lux is more important. Color temperature is on the blue side--about 6k I think. I figured I'd get them and send 'em back if they don't fit or if I don't like the illumination. The other lights have good reviews, so I think they're pretty high quality.
