I have 6000K HID and the bulbs are 4700K I believe. It's yellow compared to my HIDs. I don't use high beam often so that's ok

oh ok, what do you use for your running lights then?

Edit: I mean that little light that runs along with the HID's that sits atop of the orange signal light, can someone post a link of a nice White bulb to replace that one with......it just looks dirty with the HID

side-firing led bulbs look the best imo. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-HID...9021QQtcZphoto
