Maybe Rockpick can setup a poll. I am getting ready to buy some and I can't decide which to go with. Pictures would be helpful too.

 

6000K here.

The pics:

 

5000K in my fogs super bright!

 

4300k headlights and fogs.





like matt said...fogs are super bright. 9005 type bulbs are actually a high beam headlight bulb that happens to fit into the f150 fog housing

 

Not sure what temps these are, but here are various temps/color i have had! All Pictures are fogs only!

 

More!






As of right now i'm running a 6K, which is crisp white, with little to no blue!

 

4300k heads and fogs check sig

 

I'd go with 4300K or 6000K

 

That's what I was thinking Thump. What would you all say the difference is between 4300k 6000k? A "textbook" definition.

 

4300K is what factory equipped HID cars run since it provides the most light output.

6000K has a little tint of blue to it. If anyone says otherwise than their kit isn't really running whats advertised.

 

4300K is a pure white color, looks exactly like OEM HID's on all factory setups, has the highest lumens (brightness) output, and gives the best light quality on the road in front of you with the least amount of eye fatigue. 6000K is slightly bluer and doesn't have quite as many lumens as the 4300.....while still having more than your standard halogen, just not as much as a 4300k setup. The bluer tint also tends to not have as good reflectivity on the road surface in wet conditions as the 4300k, and the bluer you go, the more eye fatigue you will get on long trips at night. Not so much noticed with 6000K, but if you get up higher in the scale, 8000k or so, you will notice this. For the best lighting and the most factory look that won't attract any attention from the local five-o, I'd say go with the 4300k. If you want a look that really stands out from the rest go with 6000k and you will only loose a little bit of lighting performance compared to the 4300. Hope this helps!

 

Thanks for the info! I am leaning towards the 6000k because I really like that bluish tint and I want to stand out. I am hesitant if it will look kind of ricer. As far as the bulbs how do they work. From what I understand there are several parts to an hid setup. I know when you add more to a process it adds more potential for error. Am I going to have to splice my factory harness? Would I be able to pop a halogen bulb back in if I burnt my ballast. Also how long do they last? Who has hi beams?
