Does anyone have this setup? It's about $300, and says it's "plug and play". I'd get the 5000k kit, but does anyone know how much of an increase it has over stock? It'll never be as good as OEM with projectors, and I know that, but I'd like more light. I miss my HIDs from my S4.

There was a post some time back showing the light patterns of the aftermarket system compared to stock. Because the light source is in the same location with the HID kit, the light patterns were about the same. The light quality was higher with the HID kit, of course. I think the conclusion was that it's a nice upgrade but lacks some of the patterning and color possible with the litronics system.
As far as the quality of the components, I don't remember that there was any comment. These aren't bulbs that you'd want to be replacing very often so a cheap system could be more of a headache than it's worth.
