Has anyone changed they're factory 4300 k xenon bulbs
For a higher temperature like 6k To better match AE's? Last edited by Shahdog; 06-04-2012 at 07:12 PM.. |

If you want a whiter color from your headlights, get the New Osram Cool Blue Intense bulbs. Unlike any other bulb on the market (aftermarket or otherwise) this creates a whiter 5000K color not through tinting the bulb (which decreases light output) but by using a different mix of salts in the bulb. You pay a premium for it, but they're so nice. The guys/gals on HIDPlanet absolutely rave about it.

I've seen shots of them in euro reflector hid housings (older Benz e class) and it looked awesome! given that, in my mind, its a great bulb for any HID system. and with a clear lens + shield tuning, I think any projector can be given a noticable upgrade. once I get the guts to crack open my lights for led rings, I'll definitely be doing just that. |
