Some pics of my 8000ks installed

It was a b1tch to install them. I tired really hard to install them from under the hood and it just wasnt happening. I finally have up and removed the wheels to do it. The install took about an hour, I think it came out great.

Here is just the left installed.. it makes the stock HID look like a halogen light off an 89 ford pickup.


Here a pic of the stock light from above the light..


And now the 8000k..


I dont have any night shots yet Ill take some when I get out of work tonight, but I drove up to the beach with a few friends and I love the color on the road. Visibility was fine I was on some extremely dark roads (my friend knew some back roads from Hampton beach to Newburyport) and the lights did a great job at lighting up the road. Ill update this tonight with some night shots farther away.

Matt

McCulloch... I think thats closer to how its spelled

If I'm not mistaken, I think Philips only makes 6000k.

Love the color, definitely post up more pics. Are they any harder to install than the fogs?

Here are the night shots.







Driving with them for 2 nights I love the color. Whoever says you lose light with 8000k has bad eyes becuase I prefer this color light lighting up the road in front of me. Its no projectors but for 100 bucks its a good mod.

No one "said" that you lose light output with a higher temp... its a fact.

Not what I meant... I meant with the naked eye I personally cannot tell I "lost" any light.
