OEM HID bulb color?

kannibul · 01-24-2010, 10:17 PM

I'm thinking of getting a couple of HID kits for my Nissan Frontier and my Honda Civic, from DDMtuning.com (not ebay stuff...)

I'm aiming for the same tint/temperature as what's in the Z, stock.

Thanks!

I believe they are 4300K.

4300K

100% sure.

if you'd like a more white look with a slight tint of blue, go with 6000K. higher than that will look more blue, then purple around the 12000K area.

EDIT: I was looking at the bulb from a Lexus RX (my brother guts the projector from the headlight housing for his Jeep and Rhino) the other day and they used a Philips D2S 85122. I looked it up and it was also 4300K. Might be a viable option to look into.
