Ordered a 2 HID WHITE SMT 5 LED LIGHT BULBS. Are these good with 6000K. Will they match. Too bad i couldnt get the 10% discount i ordered before i even saw the coupon. But unfortunatly i havent recieved them yet.

 

it's cheaper to get 6 and pay for the shipment to Saudi once than to just pay for the shipment twice. I should be getting them in 10-14days i'll post pix.

i already have someone who's interested in the 2nd best match

 

Just ordered the 5SMT and 5000K HID's

Go me!

 

Hi Guys.
My region has a 5000 restriction on headlights.
Could I get some kind advise if these 5SMT to 27SMT lights.... which ones I should be getting?

 

Hi Guy's I'm new to the forum.
I'm actually interested to get the 27SMT bulbs.
After reading this post, 11SMT matched the 6000k hids????
Does this mean its as bright as a 6000k headlight?

My region has a 5000k limit on headlights... would the 27SMT be superbright and subject me to getting stopped and fined by traffic wardens?

 

well... because one of our hawaii members recently bought 9smt bulbs and after i installed it he said 'so i guess mine are better than yours now' SO... i just HAD to get the 11smt bulb

Here are my thoughts:

If you run the lower 5smt and you have 6k hids, the light output from the 5smt is minimal so the 'color' from the hids bleeds into the parking lite housing thus it makes a 'match'. After putting in the 11smt bulbs the light output is greater so it kinda holds off the bleed from my 6k so now it doesnt seem to quite 'match'. Therefore if you want a 'matching' parking lite i suggest you go with 5smt, i am debating weather to thow my 5's back in i dunno we'll see...

 

Wish you live close to me lol so you can put them on... anyway is our car equipped with the 4.3k HID or the 6k?

 

4.3k is stock hid, thing about the 5smt, it matches both, dont know how 11smt would match the stock hid since im not to interested in putting the stock ones back in just to see if they match. As for installing the parking lite, its in the manual p.31x, around there but as always one bit of advise, have a small strip of electrical tape precut to tape the bulb after you plug it into the harness, just incase

 

there is a pretty sharp contrast between the stock 4300k HIDs and the 11smt vleds. There is no "match", but its sharp enough that i think it looks pretty unique.

 

Ya got a picture for that? I would like to see how sharp it is...

 

OH by the way what's the difference between 5 SMT and 11 SMT? beside the number lol

 

ya i'll take a picture when i get home from work.

also, as far as i know, the only difference between the 5 and 11smt leds is the brightness.

 

Cool thanks,

the higher number the brighter the light output?

Wonder if its gonna produce a little bluish light output with the stock HID

 

reguardless if you choose 5/9/11/27smt or the one that vleds runs on his car it will look way better than the stock bulb.

the differance is the brightness

 

um... ya I know but you didn't answer my question lol, the higher the number the higher the light output?

Oh ya I do hate the stock one that orangish POS
