site legit for philips 6000k Bulbs?

Went on this site for Philips Ultinon D2S 6000K HID. They are listed on there for $149.99 for a set of two. Good price for these bulbs, but are they real?

Also, i've had ultinons, they're VERY blue. I had them in my car for about an hour and swapped em out for my 81522+s and never looked back. I hated them. I couldn't see a damn thing.

Why spend that much for A pair of D2s...
I bought my pair from http://www.jlclightings.com/
They have some quality bulbs with warranty.

calling aftermarket HID bulbs quality is a joke. The only quality bulbs are OEM. All the junky aftermarket ones come from china. They all use thin quartz glass, and the return wires are never to OEM specs, so the hot spots aren't 100%. The bulbs will either die very quickly and just turn off, or they will dim over a short period of time. They don't last anywhere close to OEM hours.

The Ultinons are expensive because of the supply and demand of them. If he got the 85122+s which are better for visibility, they're only about 75$ a pair.

most cars come with 85122+s or 85122s.

you can get them from www.theretrofitsource.com

they start off yellowish and turn more white, but not as white as a 85122 would. the 85122+s are made to prevent them from color shifting.

4300k bulbs give you the best light output. 5000k isn't bad either. but anything over 5000k is blue and makes you lose a good amount of light.
