Honestly your end results for the headlights don't show much of a difference. A better test would have been to show the night time light output of both bulbs before and after during a night drive.

I have both morimoto bulbs and osram bulbs in both of my cars and I know the morimoto is indeed a upgrade over factory Phillips bulbs. I'm just saying the video footage you showed at the end doesn't show much of a difference due to testing it in a well-lit garage parked so close to a wall.

A true test would be the lights shining on a flat wall 20 feet away in a completely dark environment (no tables or benches obstructing the flat wall) or simply take the car for a drive on a dark back road with no street lights.
