06 Headlight Question

How much are a set of lights usually running for these lights? This looks like a good deal.

Their offer has been updated. Its now $549 with all bulbs. How are the stock bulbs on these projectors? Do they come with 4800K? $100 for all bulbs does not sound bad...

Stock bulbs are Philips 85122+ which are rated at between 4100K-4300K (I forget exactly). They are colorshift resistant, so they will retain there "yellowish" appearance over the life of the bulb.

I bought mine for like $250 or $300 with bulbs from a local member on here. I dunno if its just me but prices for these lights seem to have went up. I remember seeing a bunch of 06 projectors for around $300 with bulbs. But seems like a good buy to me.
