Not worth the money.
That said I have the same dual bulb setup but with the standard halogen bulbs(67864-04A)
that I swapped out for an HID retro kit in the low beam for less then half the price of the 68094-06c. If you do a search you'll find thats what a lotta guys have done.
THATS worth the money. Once you go HID you'll never want anything else. I just added them to my '10 Dodge Ram. What a difference.

I love the HID but hated the beam pattern.
The light does not go out far enough for freeway night riding. It shoots a wide bar across.
* I have about 26K miles on it and I had no malfunctions from the part itself.

Got mine before I was aware of the retrofit kits. The light is way better than stock but way $$$. I recommend getting a HID but I would do something like what 05 Ultra did or even just upgrading the stock housing for less in retrospect.

Do a Google search on HID and take your pick. You can now keep your old head and do a bi-xenon bulb to give you both low and high beam in one bulb.
Some kits are really cheap. Remember you get what you pay for.

We converted a automotive set up and it works awesome, plus you get an extra bulb and ballast, for less that the HID that includes the install. The bulb lens is motorized and moves a shield for the brights, works fantastic! I would not be with out one, the vision improvement makes a big difference.
