Where can i get real Philips Ultinon 6000k bulbs?
I saw pictures posted by o2cls and he took some night shots of his CL with Philips Ultinon 6000k bulbs. It looks really purple and i want that for my car too. I see alot of these bulbs going on sale on ebay. Are they real? I saw some of the packaging saying that its 6000k Flash White. Is there different color settings for these philips bulbs? and most importantly, where can i get these? thanks all

6000k should be bright white. Higher stuff like 6500k will be more purple.

I couldn't get a good picture of the beam.

My camera really is old now and just isn't working very good.

It does have a purple hue to it...

This picture doesn't correctly display it but if you look in my previous pic you can see it.

Thos Phillips won't be more purple than my 6500k...just based on temp...its not logical.

I'll try to take some more pics tomorrow.

If you want purple purple...you are going to have to go with a higher Kelvin rating.

Yeah man...those aren't purple.

He even stated in his own thread they aren't purple.

There was probably some editing done to those pictures.

If you get those Phillips, they will not be purple.

You have to go with 6500k like mine....

I'm sorry my camera just can't take pics like that guy's camera can at night.

So...I just took some new pics at sunset.
