with each level theres a little bit more blue, but between the 5000k and 6000k i would recommend the 6000k. You wont notice much blue till 8000k.

imo i think 6000k look the brightest

I had heard from the guys here that 6000k was the brightest.... but looking on the web it was starting to look like 5000k was brighter.

When i saw that box it looked allot like the box mine came in a year ago for my miata, so i went out and look at the ballast.. what do you know, Xentec's lol
these are 8000k, ill get a better pic tonight when it gets dark.

I was originally gonna take the bulbs and ballast and swap them into my truck, i figured they would be the same bulb because ford owns Mazda and the vehicles are only a year different, but i was wrong.







The 6000K is the best bet if you don't want blue there very bright and white.
