Okay so i got a pair of D4S bulbs from Xenon Valot with a group buy from Pocky. They were 6000K and I got them back in April, everything fine up until last night when i noticed my driver side bulb was green. So i need advice on what to do. The pictures are below.. The Bulbs I checked came with a 90 day warranty..

well... truth is, if you buy a replacement bulb and just swap one, you'll have a color difference again... hey buy a new a pair from someone else this time, when theres nothing in the mail coming for your car you feel depressed right?

I don't know what color that bulb suppose to be when it's old but on many bulbs out there, they change into a light pink when they are about to go bad.

Didn't he buy them from you?

Did you get a new pair of Xenon Depot HID Bulbs?

Seems like these bulbs arent as good as people say they are.

It sounds like pocky just set up the group buy.. not actually sell the product.

I got some cheap Taiwanese ones and I've used for a year and they're fine.

this can happen when you buy aftermarket bulbs. The hue from bulbs can be slighly diff.

Did you replace both sides with the new bulbs? Or is the passenger's side the original one for comparison? I do know that sometimes new HID's need to be "broken-in" and will somewhat change color over a period of time.

I setup a small volume GB so we can get some discount, of only three sets from Xenon Valot, Not Xenon Depot. This was back when they were one of the only few suppliers of D4S 6000K.

To date, all three pairs from Xenon Valot has failed. One of my friend bought another new pair a couple of months ago, seems to be working. Dkcivic got replacements and now it has turned green. Mine started flickering, so I pulled them out before it blew.

Ah well....How I wish we still utilize those lovely mercury filled D2 bulbs.
