Can anyone tell me why my hid lights aren't as blue but just plain white after five minutes of starting up the car.It starts off blue than it just turn plain white.I'm using stock hid and can anyone can find any shop or other dealers such (bmw,audi etc) to replace hid to 6000k.I am currently living in the area of montreal...

 

that's normal for the headlights..

 

the first 30 sec or so, it's blue is bcuz it burning/warming up the gas, and after that it turns to white afterward and it is totally normal.

 

you can just order 6000k bulbs online, and install them yourself...its very easy to do

 

how much are 6000k phillips ultimon?which site or can you buy them at canadian tire?it would be better for me if you can buy them at canadian tire.

 

u can get them for US$290 a pair at autolamps-onlie.com, but u can find cheaper if you look at bit harder

 

Nay I don't think Canadian tire sell those bulbs...

If you are in the Toronto area... then I can help... but if you are not around there... hum... good luck finding a local shop... I suggest you to buy it from a local store. Because if you order it from the states, you might have some problem with the custom duty and taxes.

 

let's say i can find them at a local store in montreal can i order it from toronto or my idea was to order from other dealers such audi,bmw,lexus etc....u guys think it's a good idea or not

 

SL1200MK4, how much would the 6000k be if I get it from you? I ran into you last time at 1st MArkham place, and I asked you about 6000k. I'm getting a pair of PIAA fogs so 6000k is not immediate but is for sure next on my upgrade list. How much would that be? Not a local shop here carries them, I was so close of getting them from autolamps-online.com. If I can't find anywhere else with the same or better price than autolamps, I'm getting them there.

6000k is technically illegal in Canada. The highest color temp you can have I think [don't quote me on this :p] is about 4200-4500k. Lexus, Audi or BMW won't have them. Besides, they all use D2S. Ours is D2R.

are you serious(illegal in canada) but then how come i see many ppl have them cause everytime when i drive at night i see lot's of ppl have bluish hid than mine.

 

The blue color may come from cars with D2S. D2S depends on the reflector design the color may look blue. And other rice cars with halogen bulbs with filters that can simulate the color temperature (40$ per pair of bulbs vs 400$ HID kit). As HID bulbs get older, the color may appear more white than blue.

tatewaki, rite... I remember you... well that's my friend's shop not mine nor do I work for him, but drop me an E-mail SL1200MK4@sympatico.ca. Cuz I am sure I will get the bulbs closer to my friends cost then if you just walk into his shop.

IMHO, the 6000K HID, you either hate it or love it. It's so obvious that it's different, just feels so different. I have seen thousands of TL pass by me @ night. But for the first time I saw a TL with 6000K. My first impression was, "wow now that's bright for a souped up accord with those $40 bulbs. "

But when I take a closer look, I was like, "no, wait, that looks like TL from the shape of the lights, and damn that's gotta be HID lights for real, cuz it's damn bright..."

It look really easy on your eyes actually, you get the attention, and feel different for sure.
