Different manufacturers sell different color temp bulbs with different color temp labels on them... that was my earlier point...

and even though my projectors say "Not for hid" on them I found the housings are actually designed for them and have to cutout for the metal rod that goes to the end of the HID bulb.... I think its more for DOT approval since HID lights arent DOT approved period unless they came OEM on the vehicle.

projector lenses were developed for HID bulbs even though they DO come oem without them in certain vehicles like my camry..
You need to do a DIY for your setup. It was due yesterday.

its the blue lights that attract my attention when coming at me... the yellow ones are less noticeable... Unless of course they are in halogen housings...then they are blinding and I mistake them for someone shining their high beams on me... the blue is USUALLY a dead give away its a kids vehicle and they are hid's.... The whole point of the blue is attention..the more distracting the better...(must be a phase of growing up since I had the annoying sound system myself ). They are not better light to see at night.. its hard to make things out when they are all blue..

I will see about a DIY after I install my 2,5" coil extensions and rear shakle lift... then I will have almost 6" of lift under them...
So far not a single person has flashed me or indicated they were annoyed by them at 3" lift.....
