Will these headlights work effectively?
I want to replace my 4300k OEM lowbeam bulbs with 10000k bulbs. The bulbs I have bought are D2R so I belive they are the correct size. Will these bulbs be compatable with my I35? (link below). Also how well will these lights function in comparison to the stock bulbs?

Yeah they're just halogens with a coating to make them look like HID's.
Wish I had gone with white LED fogs instead of my PITA custom HID fog setup...what a job that was

Yea, the most light output you will get will be between 4300 and 6000k. Anything above this is going to be tinted and faded.

Fixed.

OP, stick within' those temp. ranges. If you get 10,000K you're going to regret it because you won't be able to see **** and will have to waste more money on new bulbs.
