Regarding the Litronics, I'm not really that impressed with them on my '01. They may be better on a 987, but when compared to the reflector HIDs on my old IS, they're pretty weak and have a poor beam pattern. The poor beam pattern is more of a function of the small projector assembly vs. a much larger and more complex (and expensive) reflector, so that's kind of hard to avoid.

I've had HID on Acura CL-2001, Mazda RX8 - 2004 and Mazda CX7 - 2007 and I must say my 987 - 2006 is far superior.
