If you've got an SC, ES, or IS, it will be a challenge. The H3 housing will be difficult to plug in a ballast without water leakage.

These would be great for those with the clear fogs that want the yellow look, althought it would be cheaper to just get the yellow fogs, they wouldnt be as bright as these HIDs. I wouldnt stick these in the headlights though like they did on the ebay link. Would cops have a problem with these in the headlights?

You might want to consider GE Gold H3 - 2600k
