Alright so I picked up some Morimoto XB35 6000ks. I really like them, they are less expensive than the stock phillips bulbs, they are the same if not higher quality and I like the color of these bulbs a lot more. They have a crisp ice white to them which I like. The Retrofit Source had speedy shipping and the product is a definite thumbs up! I've included some pictures, sorry about the poor quality they are off my iPhone. Also here is the link to the specific bulbs that I purchased. They are also offered in 4300k and 5000k.

I usually do everything on my car myself but for some reason after an hour of trying to screw those damn things back in I gave up and drove to my nearest VW dealer. Took their mechanic an hour but he finally got it. They charged me $35 so in the end not a bad deal. It would have cost $100+ if i would have bought the single bulb i needed changed at the dealership.

TRS bulbs and accompanying warranty are best. I can swap out both sides in about 5min total...I have a warranty set of their original 6000k morimoto bulbs and a set of their new xb35 6000k on the way. Great guys to deal with and I recommend them to everybody in need of bulbs...hell I may even start stocking some at my dealership lol
