8000k is a little high.
A lot of blue with a lot less functionality....

It does look cool though.

hella doesnt sell "retrofit-kits" because they arent legal.. no vendor in the US can sell retrofit kits, they're not DOT compliant.

and, all these vendors who do are shady.. so, good luck finding replacement bulbs in the years to come.

4300k -5000k is closest to daylight and most usable. 6000k has a anice tint of blue. Hope that helps.

i disagree. there's still a bunch of dealers locally that sell PHILIPS/PIAA/HELLA/IPF HID retrofit kits.

just because the part is not DOT compliant doesn't mean they're all bad.
