I had them for almost a year and then my right side when out. I thought it might of been the harness but it was just the bulb so I got a replacement and it works fine now.

Nokya Arctic White, stock harness. No sign of problems at all.

I love them.

I got mine from suvlights.com I paid like 43 shipped. Putting on the harness was easy, just finding a place to run the wires took most of the time.

What color are the headlights? I have the Showoff USA purple and they look almost pink to me. I was thinking about trying the artic purple but i decided not too since i will be getting the hanabi kit and the beginning of next month!

Well, for two reasons
1-it is a good replacement harness
2-if you existing harness is not holding up too well

they will burn your harness sooner or later.....i used the 100/80 for about a year and half and then finally they went out....so either get the medium wattage bulbs or get the harness.....

My Nokya artic bulbs lasted about a year, then smoked the harness connectors where they touch the bulb. Might as well do it right from the start, so you don't get pulled over for having a headlight out just when you don't need to see a cop.
