HID Bulbs, what is d2r and d2s?
I was checkin out everythingg35.com and i noticed they have 2 different types of HID replacement bulbs, same prices, but one is d2r and one is d2s. What does that mean? and yes, i tried searching couldnt find anything.

i always go with ebay...there is only one seller that sells McCulloch bulbs he has few thousand feedback...i paid $100 shipped...all types 8000k-30000k...the change in temperature means the change in color but the higher the number the less bright it gets...cuz there is more color...

haven't heard of green...but i noe red i think is the most extreme they have...on the McCulloch is im speakin from experience because ive used their HID conversion kit and bulbs on my prelude for 3 years and never had to buy replacement bulbs and they are shine the same they always hav..but ive used other kits and the bulbs die after 18 months and the ballast doesn't stay bright...

Well I do know the higher the Kelvin, the shorter the life of the bulb and the less the intensity of the light (correct me if I'm wrong on this). I kept mines at 6000K because I don't feel like taking off the front bumper to change the bulbs too often.
