Well, they did put a disclaimer up that the current shipping version requires enlarging the metal housing a bit, and it does. I used a dremel with a grinder bit. It's not much, but just enough that there is no way you'll get them seated without grinding.

As for brightness, I went with PIAA bulbs, and while they are whiter, I can't say as though they are noticably brighter when driving. Aiming at the garage I could tell a difference, but not much on the road.

You'll need the plugs that go into the bulbs themselves. You have to cut off the stock plug and wire in new ones. They are not included with the housings, you have to either buy the entire wiring harness from 3sx, or hit your local autozone for just the plugs.

All in all I think they are worth it, if for no other reason than the option to run any H4 bulb you want. The stock H4666 options are extremely limited.
