6000k. Anything higher is going to be too dim to drive safely. Plus will attract alot of cops.

You definitely do not need 12000k. They're purple, and will be extremely less bright than stock.

If you're wanting blue, you have two choices. 6000k are bright white with a blue hue while warming up, 8000k are a sky blue color. It is perfectly safe to drive with 8000k bulbs. They will be slightly dimmer than that 6000k, but plenty bright. I had them on my last car for 2 years, plan on putting them on this car at Christmas, and there are several others running 8000k.

I'm not positive if the bulb size changed from '04 to '08, but my guess is you'll need the same D2S bulb the newer ones have.
