excellent job projectdna! very informative and hopefully the OP feels confident that he got a very high quality bulb that will work on his ride just fine.

silk-screening on the bulb base -


a few notes:
- yes, the box does say D4C, but they will fit the 2is D4S housing.
- the only other bulbs i've seen that have the metal clips on the bulb base is the oem bulb. while i can't be 100% sure that this metal clip on the bulb is a sign of high quality, again, it is on the oem bulb, so take that for what it's worth.
- this is a spare (albeit unused) set i picked up from mistuhdan, and comparing these bulbs to the set i bought from an authorized CL vendor (carlighttrends.com) and are currently in my 2is, they are exactly the same. just in case anyone wants to know...

hope this clears up a lot of confusion regarding garax D4S bulbs.
yeah the metal clip that hold the bulb to the base that what i concern about good quality bulb's it look like OEM one
