eugene, today i actually went to village nissan on hwy 7 and kennedy and i told the guy i might be interested in trading in my car, so he was serving me really well
then i told him to go out to the lot and turn on the hid's for me
it wasnt even dark, the weather was just crappy and the sky wasnt bright, but the hid's were really blue, the are white and blue, no purple at all, at least when i saw them
definitely worth it!!!!!

I read a post where Dixit was complaining about how yellow they were compared to the VISION HID's that he replaced. So he wanted 2 replace the ballast & filament ....

Are you sure he wasn't talking about the hi beams/fog lights/running lights instead?

DEFINITELY NOT!!!!

They are an AWESOME white with slight blue hue and are way better looking then the gay Porche/Audi purple color. My opinion of course.

The High beams and running lamps are UGLY yellow, but not as FUGLY as the amber turn-signal reflector..

I've seen the Panasonic HIDs up close for a brief moment and they are more of an Aqua color(Green/Blue) when warming up, but then(supposedly) they are just white. The 2K2s are BLUE when warming up, but then they are White with blue tint.
