Henry:
There is a *profound* difference between the OEM bulb and the one from
Tankmaster. It is markedly visible during the day as well from on coming
traffic (or so a neighbor tells me). Is there any other manufacturers out
there making something similar, maybe even less $ ? Probably, but I went
with these guys because of the advertised low electrical draw & I found them
quickly.
You're right, there is quite a bit of discussion/opinion on color
temperature and what's best. Kelvin, smelvin...it's just a whole lot
brighter.
