Nage, make sure your headlight modules can take them. Some get hot and can melt the housing. Also if you're doing a lot of night driving, keep in mind when switching from high to low beam if the ballast isnt the greatest it can take a sec or two for them to brighten up, especially if you've had them off for a minute or longer.
I think the set I looked at are pretty high end. Like I mentioned, I have a few kms in narrow roads with forest on either side that has a bunch of critters. After nailing one, I don't want to hit another. The more light I can bring the better! I heard there can be a lag but as long as I always have light I should be fine.

Does 450 installed seem high?
