Thinking of changing my stock hid blubs that are 4300k and want to order a pair from another post i saw a guy selling them from Japan. What do you guys think? and what LED in the city light will match the best?

IMO, I'd go with 6000k because I think 8000k is a higher risk of getting pulled over and a lil too blue-ish for me since 6000k is already got a slight blue. The city LED bulb I ordered was from www.vleds.com Suppose to be a 194 wedge bulb, but for some reason I dont see it there anymore...trying to find u the link. Imma keep on searching, if i find it, i will defin. post it up for ur reference.

My buddy just ordered 6000k's and we installed them side by side with his 8000k's
after driving around for 45 mins and parking at various dark unobstructed walls, it is my opinion that if you want any blue in your bulb, go with 8k, 6k is not too much different from 4300 and will just get rid of most of the yellow. The whole 'output is ****' comment is BS. Driving side by side I hardly noticed a difference in the intensity or luminescence on the road. I do not know about rain, that might be a different story.
Final verdict, if you want a stock look and dont mind a slight hint of yellow, go with 6000
If you want all White with a blue hint and absolutely zero yellow, for that distinctive look.. go with 8000k.
hope this helps.

I think my 6000k look just fine ![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
You cant put 6000k/8000k side by side in the same car, the lite overlaps, you need 2 cars side by side of the same make with the same make bulbs to see a difference.
