And for the brand of 6000k bulb, you get what you pay for definitely. I'd recommend the Phillips Ultinons, but that's just me.

so the z's headligh assembly does it for you(high/low) not the bulb itself?

wow those phillips are expensive i looked it up on ebay and its $185 each crazy!!

How do you like the color? Is it blueish?

I don't have them installed yet because I'm waiting for custom headlights to get completed. Hopefully to get them installed in May... busy month. I hope it's not blue.

When I bought my HID's for my altima I was debating 5000k or 6000k as I was trying to find the perfect white with none if any hint of blue. I ended up buying a cheap a** set of xentec for around 80 bucks a pair but the color is perfect; white with no yellow and if any a minimal hint of blue.

I have a good experience with XENTEC. I had them in my Altima coupe before.

The bulbs say they are made in Germany right? Ebay has some for sale..but its weird because the seller is in Taiwan, while the description says the product is from germany. Kind of skeptical

Really? My package was shipped from Canada. One of my friends recommended this site when he got stuff for his Lexus. I have pictures of the bulbs in my photo album. We'll see how it goes once I get my headlights in.
