Not bad on the price, unlike the PIAA H8 LEDs. Someone is going to have to take the plunge. I would but I already have the GP Thunder 7500k bulbs.

Yes, to closer match the HID projectors.

You're going to get a bulb out warning if you use LEDs.

Before you get LED replacement bulbs you may want to look at this thread on e90post. The guy (and a few others) bought the $300+ PIAA LEDs and was disappointed with the day-time results. It may just be this product and not all LED solutions but it is definitely something to be aware of:
