...something like this?





That is an 8K HID set.

This one is a 6K HID set:





It looks more white from the side.

The Best

Look if you are looking for that HID look, but don't want to spend alot. Go to this website. www.Luminicsusa.com The best bulbs you can buy.

I have the blue ones in my Mustang, Yaris, and Honda. They work really well and they have the same look as 8000k HID for half the price.

Just a note: remember to look at the Wattage of the Bulb before you install it....
Higher Wattage, More heat produced ~ might melt your headlight or connector if it's too high....

Stock bulbs are usually 50W~60W....

Same here. The single HID is so easy to install, you can't possible have a problem. Bixenons (hi/lo) are a bit more complex, but still pretty easy, but most everyone tends to find the hi-beams to be unuseable due to the poor pattern from the reflectors. Halogen hi-beams are never focused worth a crap, since the bulbs are piggy-backed, thus off-center. Single HID is easy, cheap, and very effective. Once you use the HID lows, you'll never need a hi-beam.
You will probably need to re-aim your headlights a bit lower to avoid blinding other drivers with your glare. Ideally, you'd retrofit projectors, but that's another story.

whats a TB? lol

6k is a nice enough hint of blue compared to regular lights but not super blue to attract the unwanted of attention from cops.... at least not for the color.... havnt had any issues with mine yet.... love the bi-xenon. very easy to install.
