Replacement MACH bulbs ?
One of my hid's turned purple the other day so i figure i should replace them. any low price recommendations ? i found these. and would you rather have stock 4300k or 6000k ? soley for the purpose of better light output not looks.

I like HIDs with 4300, they look like normal lights, only brighter. My $0.02.

When my bulbs go I'm gonna get them from here.... www.theretrofitsource.com/index.php?cPath=27
They have more color options too; The Phillips D2S is OEM btw. Another vote for 4300K, I really don't like anything over 5K.

Moving too far away from 4300K in either direction will reduce light output, so just stick with stock.

I've been debating picking up a set of the Osram Xenarc 66240 CBI's when my tax return comes in. They are a little pricey (~185 a pair) but the reviews over at hidplanet.com say they are well worth it.

i saw those , theyre nice. but i ordered the morimoto 3fives. hopefully they will be ok.
atleast there not the 12.99 with free shipping d2S bulbs on ebay. i cant imagine those would last but a few days.

I had one go out and piicked up a pair off of ebay for maybe 40 bucks shipped. I think mine are 6000s. (whatever the whitest is) Ive had no problems for about a year now.

Just a little side info. These bulbs for the High Beam and Fog Lamps match the color of the factory HID's that you are looking to replace.
Hoen Bulbs H10 (Fog Lamp) $39.00 Pair H7 (High Beam) $39.00 Pair |
