I highly doubt they're Xenon charged. I think the only real difference is the blue glass to make it look correct. Honestly - Xenons are HID's, and HIDs require an igniter ballast in order for the headlights to actually work properly.
I'm sorry... But I think these are normal halogens.
A VERY small amount of Xenon gas is used in some halogen bulbs to produce whiter light, but they're still halogens.
I hope they don't burn hotter than the stock bulbs and fry your wiring harnesses.

Yeah just be careful. I'd check the wiring every once in a while to make sure it's not starting to melt.

The auction says it uses 90 watts which is almost double of what the stock bulbs use (50-55 watts). I hope you don't fry anything...

my bulbs say on em 80 watts maybe they were already changed? had em in for week now nothing has fryed .. its all on fuses so the fuse will blow before the wires will fry anyway thats what they protect if the amp draw it too much the fuse protects it...

Or so you'd think....
Luminics bulbs run @ 55 watts too, but they would fry the wiring harnesses on Scions. The fuses didn't burn out before the harnesses fried either.
