What do you guys do w/ the stock yellowish headlight bulb?
I'm tired of the stock so call 5000K philips bulbs... ppl asked me why Infiniti G35c doesn't come w/ HID, mean while, I have to turn it off and back on to show them they are HID... sigh...
Anyways, what kinds of bulbs did you ppl use as replacement? 5500K? 6000K, 8000K? What brand? (I notice even w/ the same 6000K bulbs, different brand gives different colour... Plilips 6000K=purple/white, Pro-lumen 6000K=bluelish/white, GE 6000K=Warm pink/white...)
Guys, please post some pictures of your HID w/ Brand and how many K is the bulbs... I need a reference guide... Thanks bros...

Different companies definitely have different colors for any given Kelvin rating. So it's pretty much pointless to go off that number. You might as well just decide if you're looking for a blue or purple bulb and then see which company's bulb matches that.
I still get pretty good color from 5000K bulbs.

These were 4100K fully warmed up, when I was testing some modifications.

I don't know about 03' 04' or 05'... but 06' comes with 5000K... it's the Philip 5000K 85122+... 85122 is the 4300K, 85122+ is the 5000K... but then again, it's the housing that makes it look yellowlish... took the bulbs out and put them in the TSX, they r pure white... so it's not the bulbs...

Thats what the dealer told me i have.I am totally satisfied with the amount of light that comes out of these projectors.I went out and bought another set of 4300k to put into the lower light.I am having them installed tomarrow at 9am.I will try to post some pics asap.!!! Hoping that i will definitely be seen on the road at night with both of them on.!! Those who live in south florida know that there are a lot of people that cant drive.!!!!
