i just bought a Philips 6000k ultinon Kit. Trying to beat the ban on HIDs. Heard a lot of good reviews from the Lighting forum.

i don't kno how good mine are, but i just got the Bohmen 7000k kit installed, i got a good deal on them, but not sure about how good they are, when i first used them, they looked green first then turned bluish white after a few minutes, so far, i like them...

I have Philips and they are awesome. To be exact, I have 6000 K. The 4100k looks yellow when compared to 6000 K.

Oops, sorry, guess I would have seen that if I paid attention. Just curious, are you changing any of the headlamp housing? Or just installing the kit into your stock housing?
