Default mobilehid 6000k

does anyone have pictures of 6000k d4s bulbs from mobilehid? I'm deciding between the two and I've seen plenty of xenondepot 6000k's but I fear for the problems they've had so far. Any pictures would be great.

Cliff, has the best D4S 6K's out hands down! They're the best color I've seen, can't complain and wouldn't take any other route. I'll hunt for some pictures just to justify!

MobileHID ftmfw!

I am also satisfied with the 6000k from mobilehid. At start up it has a purplish hue but becomes a lot whiter when it's fully warmed up. I'll search for my pics.

I'm in the same dilemma as the OP... can't wait to see some pics so I can finally pull the trigger.

I was going to get Cliff's 6k too but I got the Garax ones and I'll tell you this, driving at night with it on puts a smile on my face. It makes me just want to drive so I can stare at it! haha the output and the color is perfect! I got it for $100 shipped but its worth every cent! They are Japan made bulbs, 1yr warranty! I'm gonna go take a picture right now to prove it! LOL

Yeah sounds like they're more unique than most 6000k's on the road today. Of course any pictures would be great as I'm looking on the mobilehid site, the pictures show some cars have a very white 6000k and some have a bluer 6000k. I just want to see the color to make sure and get them. Thanks for everyone's input though

Nope, 4300k > 6000k in brightness.

Or you can do a retrofit to improve the intensity, brightness, and output. I am currently working on one for my IS and I am anticipating a nice improvement over stock. The design of the IS projector is not the best.

Retrofits cost more than a pair of bulbs, but imo I think its worth it (if you are doing it yourself).
