I'm looking to replace my HIDs and I might go with diode.
Does anyone have pictures of of the 6000k hid?
Like how it looks from front of the car. is there a blueish tint or puree brighter white?

Thanks!

6000 kelvin will be a little bluish, 5000 kelvin will be closer to white.

Bo0m

oh, also I heard the higher kelvin, less light output.
will there be any problems with visibility at night with 6000k's?

2008G-Man

You are correct, will there be much difference between 5k and 6k? Not much I would think.

Bo0m

oh i thought the oem was 4300k

There is a good difference. I tried DD's 6000K bulb but it was not bright enough so I went back to OEM. Then I moved up to OSRAM 5000K bulbs. THAT chit is bright!

Yes, OEM is 4300 kelvin

OEM is 4300.

i got the 6k's from DD, they look nice and white too me, there is a little blue in there but they are pretty white, and they illuminate the ground well for me. i also got the 3k yellow fog kit and i usually have that on and they make everything yellow lol totally over power the white, but the white goes further down the road then the fogs

Bo0m

would you mind taking a pic like the way I did in the 1st post please?

Bo0m

i found the site but i can't find the exact bulb, how much is it?

just installed 6k bulbs and 6k fogs (sedan) from dd....the bulbs are a little brighter then stock once you let them burn in and the hid fogs are about 3x brighter.

Theyre also white/bluish which looks really good.

Bo0m

mind if you can take a picture like the way I did in the first post please?
There's no problems with visibility?
Thanks!

The pictures of the drivers view may seem a little brighter than real life because the lens stayed open for longer than usual, but they look pretty much the same as looking out the front window.

Without fog:

thanks for the pics!
did you notice any visibility issues at night compared to oem with low beam cuz it looks a little dim in the 2nd pic, maybe its the picture but idk

chlutz214

i see fine. its about the same as the stock, and i really enjoy looking at the nice clean light not the gross pale yellow they gave off.
