Does the job BUT. for light bulbs

nothing to complain about for the price. This is a set of light bulbs for $15. While everyone else in the industry focuses on halogen, HID or LED bulbs, it's good to have an incandescent bulb. Some cars are simply wired to ONLY work with a set of such bulbs and not LEDs or HIDs - mainly due to the way the vehicle reduces/halved/pulse modulated power in the form of "Daytime Running Lights" to the bulbs sends. I've had many non-brand or imported bulbs like this over the years and they seem to be getting harder and harder to find. I expect them to last the standard period and if they last at least 1 year I'll be happy. My only concern is straight out of the sealed box - this "matched set" has a significant color difference. Temperature between the pears. The difference is almost 1000r. My driver's side is close to the advertised 6000-6500 (bluish tinge) while I would say the passenger's side is leaning more towards the 5000-5500 (pure white). I won't complain or complain because overall it goes well with my LED turn signal bulbs and is way better than the 4000 OEM bulbs. Overall I am happy with my purchase. In conclusion, however, I would like to say that as the market for these bulbs seems to be disappearing, this quality control does not seem to prevail as it used to. Spring.
