How much did you pay for those?

I sell HID kits lifetime warranty ....

but as far as the problem it is usually related to the wiring on the headlight or bad ballast.

In the same boat. Don't like my 12000K HID's anymore, I want pure white now. I've been Googling for hours comparing pictures of cars with 5000K and 6000K HID's.
Will probably end up going with the 5000K which seem to be as close to just plain bright white as possible, although it also depends on the brand and on the headlights.

Or I might just buy both haha. If you already have everything else, replacement bulbs only cost about 15$ shipped on Ebay.

Subject: Re: HID help December 21st 2009, 4:06 am

Yeah, but I want to make sure.
I know a few people that have the 6000k and all 3 have a different look, one more hint of blue than the other.

They have ebay kits so we all know how that goes.

Subject: Re: HID help December 21st 2009, 4:17 am

I have 8k on the MR-S. Very small amount of blue. 6K will be white, I'd go with that if you want white. Most OEM HID's are 5300-5700K iirc.

Subject: Re: HID help December 21st 2009, 9:58 pm

The kits I have the 6K is pure white. So thats your best bet.

Give me a call or shoot me a text: 773-391-4313 or if I dont pick up leave a voicemail with the information you need to find out and ill get back to you as soon as I can.

Also Alex if you want the ballasts by themselves I can work out a deal for you. So just shoot me a text or call my cell so we can work something out.
