Flicker effect is the cutoff, if you look at the wall you'll see the prism color, the sharper it is, the more a flicker effect you'll have when driving (if you're looking at the car driving past). My s2000 has a pretty hardcore flicker effect with the CBIs - running stock lens. The LS460 lens is nothing compared to that, so the flicker effect is much less substantial - stock lens as well.

So guys I am a strict believer of following up on posts, for those interested I finally got new bulbs installed yesterday Osram Xenarc Cool Blue Intense or CBI, purchase for 2200 UAH which is less than a 1000 USD maybe 80 or 90 for the pair. At the same time I had Nike lights installed I used phillips LED. this but not from this site of course https://www.powerbulbs.com/eu/produc...-w5w-t10-6000k I think i got the 6000K version the difference is labeled or you can tell from the colour band on the bulb, yellow, grey, blue. I paid less than 15 USD for 2 packages which is 4 bulbs.

Not much point buying expensive leds shipped from the US when you can have a very similar effect for this sort of price here locally, minus all the waiting time. Plus I like how the bulbs look very clean and have a diffuser lens for a nice light pattern. I shall post some pics soon.
