*sigh* the ####K is only for color temperature. the lower the #, the more "usable light" there is. so if you want to see, then 4100K. if you just want to be glaring, then get the 8000K. i'm sure there's a 12000K kit around the corner. i'd imagine it being just like UV lamps.

check sig for quality.

from my experience, the 4000K's are an Acura white ... the 6000K's have a BMW sort of purple tint to them.

here's some pics of a 6000K set i just installed on an RSX ...

while i'm at it ... here's the sig i made for him ...

wife's been bugging me to get some for her 98 accord. So I guess it's time...she won't let me mod it otherwise but HID's are A-ok in her book...so where should I get some from?
