Anyone have pics of Luminics bulbs installed?

I've been hearing more and more positive feedback on Luminics brand bulbs lately. They are reasonably priced, and from the pictures here they look pretty good. Anyone here actually have them in their Max?

*I still standby the fact that all blue tinted/colored bulbs are eassentially the same, my curiosity in Luminics is that in the 3 seperate lines (hyperwhite, pure blue, and violet), you can actually see the darker and darker tint on the bulb and thus less yellow.

you can buy them here http://www.luminicsbulbs.com/ and i have the ultra violet headlight bulbs/ jdm yellow fog light bulbs but I must warn you with the ultra violet ones they seem a lot dimmer on the road for some reason or maybe its just me. Finally a aftermarket reliable headlight bulb that wont blow.

Well obviously a regular tinted bulb won't give you a purple light...unless it was so tinted that abrely any useable light comes out. Anyone have pics of their hyperwhite? Considering them to better match my HIDs, as my current "hyperwhite" bulbs are yellow up close and white from afar.

That won't blow? I want to see that. I've had 10 year warrantee bulbs go in 3 months and "lifetime guarantee" bulbs go in a month. I doubt there is an aftermarket bulb that lasts any longer than the next. Its just some companies promote a longer lasting bulb in my opinion.

I've had tinted bulbs last a year with no problems. Incorrect installation is the biggest cause to premature failure. i.e. touching the glass and leaving finger oil

I won't disagree with that. I never let my fingers or anything else for that matter touch the glass. And my bulbs never burst or blow up, the filaments always burn up.

I also have an upgraded headlight harness that connects directly to the battery and a good ground.

are these stock wattage? also do they burn hotter than stock because i would be interested in them for my fogs, but i dont want them to be so hot that they crack my fogs if water splashes up.
