OK, So I'm trying to find 9005 and H10/9145 bulbs that give off the blue ish tint that HIDS give off, or a pure white, but probably about a 10k temperature color. Later in the future I plan to get HIDS for my high beams but for now just looking for the lows and fogs. Any help is appreciated!

couple things........

9005 are the highs. H11 for your lows.

10K is blue.....and will draw the wrong attention to you, while putting out less output than my flashlight........

Lol the headlight man instantly caught the mistake, thanks man I was hoping you'd chime in. Is there a bulb I can get that'll look like the HIDS or a true pure white? I absolutely hate the factory yellowish color... 10k is what i want but the 8K is the lowest temperature I want. I'll have my KC's on on the open highway (Arkansas highways are very open and rural) when my highs are on so output isn't a big deal. Just looking for color man. And ps, I doubt your flashlight is still factory lol, I figure you have highly modified it with your abilities I've seen some of your work and it's amazing!

why would you want 10k? is it just a show truck? these will be very blue bordering going purple, I think you may be mistaken on temperature and light output, 4300 is the purest white hid and the most light output, 6000k is one of the most popular colors as it has some blue in it but again less light output,anything past 6000k the light output starts to drop very quick good for ****** people off and not seeing anything, but as far as just a bulb Sylvania zxe's are supposed to be HID like look, ive never seen anyone run them and doubt they are very bright

Not a show truck, it's my DD but the places that I use my lows and fogs in town are more than well enough illuminated. (I could drive without lights on period) So to make everyone happy, can anyone name any other bulbs in the 6000-8000 range? I know the difference between temperature and output, temperature is going from about 4K being stock yellowish to 12K which is like a violet color. But as said again, my highs will be true HIDS and probably come from JJ.
