look for something called brite white etc. the higher the # the brighter the output. I may try to pick up some cool blue HID plug n play kit later.

The higher the K, the LOWER the output! Best bet if the rest of the lighting is factory would be a 4100 to 4500K set.

Don't cheap out on it because you'll have to replace something 3 months later. Spend the extra money now to save on headaches.

Too bad that it isnt really Providence and is actually Warwick to us RI people.
