    I have Silverstar's -4000k. According to the back of the box, I guess it is the brightest before you go into the HID's. ?

    want to match color as best possible, not really worried about brightness.. they'll be bright enough.

    Hey Toasty...

    Just an FYI.....I have been looking for a set to match my 6000K's as well, and have not had any luck....I was going to go with the silverstars, but they are 40 bucks for the pair, so my thinking is why not throw another 30 with that and go HID so I know for sure. I think that is the route that I'm going with.

    Mine were no name....and $13.

    Edit: Found them!

    Although I now use the H7 style, these are 893's and they will work.

    I tried 4 different blubs including Silverstars (A friend had an 880) none of them came remotely close to matching my 6k HIDs. My solution? Get 880 6K HIDs too, problem solved...

    I wouldn't waste money on finding a matching blub, theres a good chance you won't find one. I had blubs that were all blue and they still looked yellow compared to the HIDs...

    Very true. That's why I"m gonna go ahead and get the whole thing done. Because one thing I can't stand is to have two different colors mixing it up on the road ahead of me.
