Thread: What are the brightest hids low beams for 07 gp

Currently my 07 GP base has 8k HIDs for the low beams 9006, i wanted to know what is the Brightest ones to get and how can we make them very very very bright? i saw a couple of threads that made these projectors that made the lights SUPER MEGA BRIGHT. i think it was in this thread called panda prix i think. but ya how can we do that

Ahhh makes more sense so 4300k is pure white huh, so why people say 6k is pure white? Anyone got a pic of there GP with 4300k hid, also i though 4300k was like yellow or yellowish? we like the blue in it but now im thinking of the brightest to use on the road to see better and to be seen with these bright ass lights.

These are 4300K in my 99 with stock style headlights.
I am very happy with them.
Only trace of blue is when first turning them on until they get warmed up.

4300 is the whitest white.
I believe 3k is yellow or closest to 'stock'

Nice, its a 99 huh, my guess they would be much brighter on my 07 because of the bigger headlight. Do you know how do they look next to 6k or 8k hids, and are better too?

Well if they car pure crystal clear white then it has my attention, you got a pic of how they look on the headlight it self by any chance?

Ok if they are pure white in say my stock headlamp, then are they brighter than my 8k hids???

Factory HID's in this:



are bluish in colour temp.

ZOMG

And those are reflectors.

Tried diode dynamics 4300K kit in my vehicle, slightly more blue that aforementioned vehicle.

Most likely yes, but the 8k appear to be brighter some how. you suggest i try to buy a 4300k? If anyone has a pick of the two together i may just get teh 4300k IF they are indeed the brightest

You're using a picture.

You can change the apparent colour temp by changing the colour temp correction built into the camera.

Sure this might show a relative change, but still if not set correctly its still guessing.

Best thing is to find locals and compare.

4300k lows on top and 8000k fogs on bottom

I hear ya on the iphone, i got the 3gs and its not bad but not good either nor are the androids.

On topic, that looks very great and might just convince me and nice fogs BTW. Not to be too picky but you got one with just the headlamps on by an chance?
