Let us know how the lights turn out, i was thinking of getting the 6000 but if the 8000 makes a big difference i think i might get the eight. How much did you pick the 8000 Hid set for?

i think i would come down to the DOT certified issue...if the 6000K aren't, then i could see where you could be held liable.

according to autolites.net, no aftermarket HID lighting is DOT approved............if it gets too blinding, i can always adjust the angle of the light pod.............aloha.........

i guess if the vehicle was not originally equiped w/ HID. also many of our HID-type bulbs, altezza-type tail lamps, exhaust, steering wheels (momo, grant, GT....ect) unless the product clearly states DOT approved. not sure about the inspire tails though if it is approved for US it should state DOT.....it's all part of the fun in tuning cars:yack:
