How is the light output? I have some shitty ass blue bulbs and the color is nice but the light output is shitty. I may as well drive without headlights and let the lamp posts guide me on the road.

Im glad that I have good vision because I used to drive with the shitty bulbs I have and I also took off my windshield wipers for a more "cleaner" look to the car. At times, I couldn't see shit, and that was such a hazard. I'll do anything just to look good. Haha
