Default need advise for getting a HID..

I am looking for HID for my 98 ES300. Before I am not really into the light mod, however in this past two week I been pull over for haveing blueish light. but all I need is something brighter then stock. but I am worry about getting pull over and send to court.. so I was thinnking about HID, because HID don't have that blueish light bulb so I think I am getting one set to be safe.... so I want to know if 8500k will be to blueish... how about 8000k and what brand is good... where would be the best place to order them

Please let me know

thankz

IMO....anything above 6000K is too blue.....Ive seen the 8000K and they are nice but i guarantee the cops will pull you over in a heartbeat.

What if I told them it's stock HID... It's kinda standard for Lexus, BMW, M-Benz .... to have HID.. will they believe that... because I have seen some m-Benz have some blueish HID on their car (most blueish when they first start the car, but it gets white later) so do you know what will they do if I told them it's stock...

they can still send you to a referee, you just asking for problems imho. just stay with 6000k, anything higher it's getting to blue and dim anyway
