Well I really do want to order the HID's from the vendor on this forum.

Think they'll be all right?

someone needs to stop talking about doing a retrofit and just do it already... then we can compare the two.

I am running 8000K 6000K is pure white, 4500K is yellow I think.
4300K is stock HID lighting, which is considered pure daylight...

3000K is yellow, 6000K is pure white, 8000K I consider ice blue, 10000K I consider dark blue, and 12000K is violet
