BTW, the eyelids are 2 sets.. So you really need 3 sets.

i stuck these leds in the front side clear markers and it gives off a bluish color but its bright. they dont match the 6000k HIDs but they might match the 8000k set because of the blue tint.

I have to say, they are bright as hell. not sure about the long term durability, but for some reason my other polarg bulbs are burning out (maybe I got oil on them while installing), so I will be buying some more of these LEDs.

I feel the same way. A lot of times, bulbs are blue and not too bright. these are really bright so it kind of makes up for being blueish.

Does anyone know the difference between: hyper white, ultra white, super white? is there a difference in the K temp?

I have 6000k HIDs on my car and these LEDs will be bluer then the HID kit after the HIDs warm up. If you like that look, go for it.

the LED's look like the lite is split to the sides instead of directly pointing out. Or am I wrong?

Duh. Look at the bulb it has 2 SMDs on either side. You can play with the effect by turning the bulb 90° each try.

LOL? Me bright Wish I was
They will work for eyelids (I tested them) but will fail as number plate lights due to the way of its SMD design (on the sides)
