Default Phillips 6000K D2R Bulbs - H e l p

I've been looking high and low and cannot find a set of Phillips 6000K Bulbs to swap right out from the current bulbs we have right now.

Can anyone help direct me as to where I can go online to buy the right bulbs ?

Thank ya!

Ok, I'm going to follow-up on my posting :-)

I found a great website from a thread from the past that I dug up. Now I'm confused on one final thing.

Do I need both Low-Beam and High-Beam bulbs? Here's why i ask. . the High-Beams are much more expenisve than the Low-Beams. Not sure what's going on :-)

D2R = Low Beams

H7s = High Beams
http://www.hid-online.com/products/products.asp?id=44

I hope someone can help me as to what I need to order, haha.

Yes, but you can also check ebay - just make sure you get phillips. There are some reputable sellers on ebay

$175 each seems expensive to me. I would think $100 to $130 is more resonable for Phillilps Utillions. As this was something I was more interested in several months ago.

So all I need is the D2R Low Beams, and those will directly replace what we currently have, correct?

I'm going to place my order today, if I can get a confirmation that it's possible on the direct replacement.

It's something that i've seen on a Z in a different thread and it looked VERY NICE. . . however, the HIDs we have now are nothing to complain about. . . I'm just shooting for a new look

Just an FYI 6000K ultinons are technically illegal to use in the US.

I also want to change my HID bulbs to 6000K, and a lot of people in this forum seems like they recommend philips. But, yes. The price is too steep for 175$ per bulb. I hope I can find some place else that has a decent price? perhaps 100-130$ per bulb? or no more than $250 per pair?

yeah! I can't find them for under 175.00/bulb either. If I can find anything, I will let you know for sure!

I saw you had the Ings+1 Half kit. . . could you send some pictures? I'm looking into that kit on my SS

E-mail me @ Christopherluck@charter.net
