O boi...
DAmN, that's all I said after I installed my 6000Kelvin HID bulbs
!!! No photograph could ever show you the phatness of the change from 4200K to 6000K
...Im so glad I made this investment because its very stimulating knowing and seeing that your HID is so much phatter than any BMW, Benz, Porche, Audi, or any car for that matter...So many people will notice your cars uniqueness at night...It makes other cars HID look yellow compared to mine...I used to marvel at other people's HID thinking I was cheated on my $hit, but not now...I swear I thought my contacts were fucked up or something, but its the HID if you stare into the light for too long it makes your eyes sore
...I read in the manual that its not good to look into the light source, i cant stop looking at it in disbelief...It's weird your eyes could easily mistake the light for purple, but its sooo damn white that your eyes have trouble distinguishing the color...Im 100% sure that I would do it again if I ever get another car w/HID...Put on your sunglasses haters :P...Shyne

Hey I was looking into that too but was wondering if it would burn out the plastic housing that the light clips into, cause those things are superhot. Do you know anything about this.

WTF, ballers get the 6000K conversion for their fogs too
...Na forreal, I bought my bulbs from autolamps-online.com...real nice company from the UK, they took time to answer so many questions of mine...i bought them for 350$ total, shipping was free, but its not fast cuz it has to clear customs and shit
8 days total...only thing i noticed after installing these things is the fucking bling
, make a nigga say gaaa' damn
...na forreal, they do hum a little louder than stock HID...These philips bulbs are the finest in the industry, made in Germany where all manufacturers order their HID bulbs from...These were specified for the honda inspire, so there is no problem with installing these things...not a damn thing to worry about, except getting the money to buy them bitches...well, if I were youz guyz, and I seriously wanted these things, I would buy from autolamps-online...they have the real shit, you dont want some imitation shit HID bulb with glass filters in them...so beware...mean time bow down

D2R is specified for our cars, D2S is for audi and bmw the ones with the projector beams...You can retrofit your bulb to a D2S because it works too...You might get more bling with the D2S, but you also might get pulled over because these really cause a lot of glare...D2R has a stripe on the bulb to hide some of the salts that become really active and cause glare...I would have taken the d2S, but I just wanted what was specified for my car...When you order the D2R, they will email you and ask you if you want the D2S because they dont stock the D2R, so for the D2R it takes two weeks plus the 5-8 days it takes to ship here to the US...I dont know, but Mr. Hyde has the d2S and it works perfect...So you might just want to order the D2S from the start...I got the last pair of D2R's in their wharehouse, so i know youll be waiting for those...good luck...Shyne

i say they are a lot brighter than stock...you know how in the city night with all the street lights its kind of hard to see your light out put??? its much more easier to recognize your light out put on the road in those conditions, its the most perfect blue/white/gray hue
...when you pull up to someone, the reflection will almost blind your eyes because of the intensity of the light output...its gotta be fucking up oncoming drivers left and right
...this cl500 tonight had HID, his shit was so dim and yellow compared to mine...its weird too, you actually notice how dim everybody's HID is after you put them it...nobody blings like me
...it's so nice to have something better than a 90,000 dollar car...i would put them on my moms benz, but you cant see shit under the hood on that thing...its just one big block with a star on it...i cant even figure out how to fill the washer fluid on that car
...good luck crazy, you wont regret this mod

Whers mr. hydes. I could care less for blinding other people. Actuallly my car before had the piaa 1000x and they where pointed up towards the drivers rear view mirror so I everyone would get the Fook out of the way.
hmm d2r or d2s can't decide
I'll probably just go w/ the d2s so I don't get picked off by cops.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are these the same bulbs BOBATIMEZ was raving about in Black market about 2 weeks ago? What's the LUMEN rating for these 6K bulbs vs our stock 4.1K bulbs? If color temp is significantly higher at a lower lumen rating, fuggeddabouit

I assume you DON'T mean this: http://www.autolamps-online.com/products/d2skit.htm ? Considering that says in big BOLD letters: "For Off-road Use Only".
Fuck if I'm gonna spend $350 on something that's not DOT approved so a cop can pull me over and ticket me, or an asshole cop can make me tow my car or wait until daytime to drive it from wherever he pulls me over.

Here I am, man is TL.com slow.
Anyway I am rolling with the d2s's. I had raised my HIDs after installing my springs, and I actually had them too high, but after puting these in, I had to definitely lower them back down a bit to normal levels and all is fine now.
About Lightout, while the light is whiter and brighter than before, the Lumen output/Intensity of the light is a little less even though the brightness compensates a bit. But it lights up the road just fine and looks great in my headlamps which are more similar to the CL-S ones than Shyne/Amir's. They appear now like I wish they did from the factory. The stock Hids are definitely yellow in comparison. Here are my pics.

Stock D2R, you can see the band of paint around the base and barely make it out in the rear as it goes up one side of the bulb in a narrrow strips. There are two strips which are on the sides of the bulb.

Straight from Autolamps-Online.com on the subject of D2R vs D2S for our cars:
Yes our Ultinon 6000K are Philips we don't sell any other than original Philips manufactured product and these are also used in the conversion kits.
If you have an OE HID system which uses D2R then this is what the headlamp is homologated for if you are going to convert to the 6000K a. they are not brighter and b. there is no difference between the light output of the D2R and D2S they are exactly the same. We have done various experimentation over the past year and for a retrofit application or OE application out side of Europe the D2R is not required.
The stripe on the lamps helps hide the salts which would appear as parasitic images in the light dark transition area of the European Assymetric dip pattern.
On a retrofit or DOT beam pattern you do not have this light dark
transition requirement and as such the D2S is just fine for any application.
Hope this answers your question and thanks for visiting Autolamps-online
