(I just tell them it's the bulb warming up). Plus, dealing with the major issue I had when I first installed them was not fun.

Good stuff! I'm crossing my fingers that you don't have any of the issues that I had. There really is a world of difference between the halogens and these.

Did you ever get your lights and did you have any issues?

I received my lights a few months ago. I initially had to send them back because they did not illuminate properly. They installed a resistor pack and have worked well every since. I had another problem a little over a month ago. The passenger side light's internal shell came loose inside the housing. I also broke the CCFL halo while I was trying to reposition the light. Performance Auto Solutions had me send them the light (I paid the shipping both ways - $37) and include $20 for replacing the halo. They had everything back to me in a week. Everything was fixed wonderfully. They are willing to do what it takes to keep their customers happy. To me, it was well worth the cost to me for the repair.
