YOU SIR are a true PW.

SO I ordered this 1" full range speaker for my a pillar for the audio for my Eclipse/Parrot Bluetooth kit to give me sound. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshow...64-860&scqty=1

They sent me the free catalog, the bass blocker i ordered and a free screwdriver....but they forgot to ship the 1" FULL RANGE speaker FTL. OH well...I convinced them for next day shipping for the speaker for tomorrow.

well 4300k is the standard temp for most if not all auto makers. so eh, why not.

plus more lumens output then higher k ratings.

4300k going into the projectors should look pretty nice. With halogen reflectors, 6000k look best IMO.

Nah 4300k with projectors should look real nice.

HID's suck though cuz every manufacuterer has their own tolerances for the output, one companys 6000k is not the same as another. I want to find the whitest possible 6kk's with just a tad of blue in'em.

Blargh. I had to take 78 on my way home. Most of 22 was closed, we couldn't even go out to lunch. That intersection is about a tenth of a mile from my building.
