Those look awesome and is the look I am going for too. I was wondering about the housing. Can you do it with the stock set up or do you need an after market pair?

Even 5K is too white for me. After putting a set of Hoen 5K lamps in my SUV, I promply replaced them after 2 nights of foul weather driving with a much more yellow lamp. And in a white out or night time blizzard or heavy fog, 2500K has been a savior for me. The added contrast will help you see the edges much better than even a stock 3500K lamp.
