No. I was told that there's no issue with the S-197, in contrast to the SN-95.

Only on the 07-08 lamps that do not have the bulb covers sitting over the bulbs, and for those we offer a bulb coating service to eliminate that as well.

Ok im interested in doing this as well, we can use these bulbs in both the lights and the fog lights right? And it basically goes the higher the number the bluer the bulb, so do you guys think it would be stupid to put 6000ks in the lights and 8000Ks in the foglights? I've never done anything like this so hopefully when i do get around to installing them itll be idiot proof...

I think it could be nice!! You also have to know that the bluer the less bright the bulbs are. So brighter for the lights and bluer for the fogs is a good compromise!!

Personally bud I would stick with the same temp, might look kinda funky them being too different shades of blue, but hey it's your ride It's definitely idiot proof, just take your time and you will not have a problem.

Just how large? The HIDs are a good upgrade if affordable right now.

Im toying with having the blues on the fog lights because it would be illegal to tint them blue like my car so im looking for ways around it lol. I'd definitely have to see some side by side comparison before i did something like that though. I think 4 6000Ks would probably be really intense and blinding for other people...

Generally stick to the color temp between headlamps and fogs or contrast the headlamps by going yellow (3000k) for the fogs.

if you always/usually use the 4 lights then go for 4 8000K... it will be bluer and less blinding...

Here is the picture of a GT 05 with 4 6000K:


Bought here (I bought mine here too):
http://www.vvme.com/catalog/list-s-10145-10146.html
He took the dual beam (lights+fogs) and I took the single beam (only lights)
Shipped by DHL (with lowered value )

And here you can see the different temperatures:
