looks like everyone else beat me to the answer regarding the hi/lo feature. And yes, mine is the same way, its a solenoid that moves extremely fast, it looks instantanious.
and i believe mine are 8k, i wanted a slight blue hue (similar to that of a BMW or mercedes)...
scott- i am surprised that the H3 kit is expensive, its a non-solenoid bulb so i would think that it would be fairly cheap. Check out ddmtuning.com, if you dont believe me, check out my headlights next time i see you.
oh, and on the 55w thing, i never had any issues with mine being 55w. At least when it comes to melting anything, both my VX and my Runner havent had problems. However, they are correct in the statement that it does seem bright to other drivers, i get a lot of people flashing me like my brights are on.
My take on it? if people are annoyed thinking that my brights are on, they are less likely to cut me off due to 'not seeing me at night'. I am DEFINATELY noticed in traffic at night, my girlfriend has been able to spot me in traffic 1/2 mile away, thats how much brighter my lights are than Halogens.
