jub Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I want to change the colour of my HIDs to 6000k, am I assuming that it's simple as just changing the bulbs? If so, anyone know where I can get good bulbs from? Cheers Quote
Ekona Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 AutobulbsDirect are as good as any, and have a decent selection too. Purchased stuff from them before with no hassle whatsoever. Quote

rtbiscuit Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 thats who i used and the K i went for as well, i also put in philips main beams, side lights and new bulbs all round, makes a good difference. Quote
marzman Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I went 8000k and i think they look perfect. Quote
jub Posted October 9, 2009 Author Posted October 9, 2009 I went 8000k and i think they look perfect. So just to clarify, you kept the stock HID kit but just changed the bulbs? How easy was it changing it over? Quote

How easy was it changing it over? Yes mate, stock everything, just different bulbs. I actually paid £27 delivered for the PAIR of bulbs... and they've been fine. You can pay 4 times that much for some named bulbs. To change them though you have to take your front bumper off... It takes about an hour, but i've had mine off loads... may take a while the first time. There are a few guides on here how to do it. Quote

Also I've noticed that you've changed your fleckers, they look like LEDs? Quote
marzman Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Kind of, but only very very slightly... they're the perfect colour in my opinion. Its impossible to take a picture of them though! Side lights were from Delsea motorsport in the states, but i dont think they're trading anymore... but you may find some on eBay usa. Here's the guy i got my bulbs from - Clicky You can kinda see the sidelights in this pic: Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I think i might give them a try Marz,lastnight in the wet i might as well of not had my lights on thatl have to do untill i can afford,and im willing,to part with serious cash to replace my skanky headlights Quote
