Just got the car back from the bodyshop. Hopefully in a few weeks when I get some time I'll get these bulbs installed. The 85122CM are D2S bulbs (projector) while the 85126CM are D2R (reflectors). Since you've got an 07, you got D2S bulbs Joel. The CM are going to be a bit less white/blueish compared to the CX I think. We'll find out soon...

Take care

Well finally got around to installing the CrystalVisions (CX). They are awesome IMO! Exactly what I was looking for. The light color is a clean crisp white with just a hint of blue in them. It should have been OEM. When driving the road appears 'brighter and whiter', but I know I've lost some lumens...BUT it's worth it! In the process of changing to the CX's I also changed out a few lights in the headlights. On to the pics...

Stock-
Low Beam- Factory 85126+ 4300K D2R bulb
High Beam/Fog- Polarg Alpha White 4500K H4 bulb
Clearance Light- V-LEDS HID WHITE 4 M-SMT 2W HIGH POWER BULBS 194

Current setup-
Low Beam- Philips 5000K CrystalVision D2R (85126CX) bulb
High Beam- (SAME)
Clearance Light- Polarg J55 4800K Hybrid Lens Type Wedge Bulbs In HID White 194

Truthfully, the pics don't truly capture the exact color. The stocks appear a bit more yellow and less clear white than the picture indicates. The CX's are a bit less blue in real life and more white. Also the pics aren't edited in any way, straight from camera to computer. I hope this helps everyone interested in upgrading their HID's.

Take care

as long as all my lights are 5000K, thus Pure white Light, no tint of blue, im happy. So far my interior is gonna be 5000K, my corners, trunk, and license plate. (cant find 74 bulbs in 5000K for my glove box) I just think 5000k is better than 6000k, IMO.

I definetely went with The 85122CM D2S bulbs, and 4800K Polarg, basically the same as 5000K by Jay Diem for my City Lights.

Hot pics blazinasian I'll post Pics of all my lights in a couple of days, its gonna be sick.

I went with these HID's
