Thanks for ripping my head off.
Anyway, I just requested a return. If they truly are that horrible for light output.. I need to be able to see.
Story on my factory ones: I wet sanded, buffed, and polished back to perfection. Instead of having an auto shop clearcoat, I decided to do this myself. It didn't turn out great, but it doesn't look awful. Guess I'll be looking for some factory replacements.
Also: I know they are plug and play, it was more on the how to wire the DLR led's. I should have been more specific on that, sorry.
