a set includes everything you need, which is 2 bulbs they are all inclusive. just plug and play.

the LEDs are around 5500-7000k. (what Ive seen seems to be in the 6000k area, but luxeon says up to 7000) but beyond luck of the draw of what they ship me, I cant pick and choose or alter their output.

price is 30$ a pair.

yes white. cameras pick up certain wavelengths of LED and HID bulbs. so they often appear bluer in photos. the blue is BLUE. it borders on purple it is so blue.

its 5500k to 6000k. the 350z HID is 4300k I think? so its in that area. I dont have pictures of the other colors because I lost all my photos and have just been trying to replace them. the bulbs were gone for a while so I couldnt take more photos.

these are just stock photos from google of luxeon bulb outputs

obviously those are different lens shapes, thus the different pattern. generally red and green are the brightest colors of all LEDs, blue is probably the least bright, white is very similair to blue, but because its more popular luxeon did create a second version of white that is much brighter. unfortunatly they did not make a similair version of blue.

oddly though as far as lumens is concerned, the above is true. because of the coloring of blue, to me; it appears the brightest.
