No...they do not work. Too dim at night unless you run your high-beams
all the time.

I'm running the PIAA bulbs (#@$! They're expensive) but they are the
brightest I've seen...and used...yet (as compared to the Sylvania
"Silver" bulbs, 9007/HO, or Xenon HID "wanna-be" 9007 bulbs).

I'm talking about just the bulbs themselves, not a HID conversion kit.
The ones offered on E-bay for 15.00 a pair. I know xenon is suppose to
be a superior gas than halogen which results in a brighter light from
less wattage. Just want to make sure I don't waste my money.

Thanks
