HID Replacement

Hi, my front right bulb just blew out and i'm searching for a replacement bulb. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good site to get bulbs and what type of bulbs the 2000 TL uses. I keep getting sites that sell bulbs with the "HID" look. Also is there a bulb that gives off more of a blue tint then the stock ones?

Thanks

try xenondepot.com

I believe that our HID are 4300K. You would probably have to buy from Acura to get an exact match. Each company rates the bulbs a little differently. I would recommend that you replace both. If you are looking for a bluer look get a higher Kelvin. I had 7500K in my last car and I loved the look

You can get it much cheaper on ebay instead of xenondepot.com SOO MUCH cheaper. The D2S ones require a little modification.

A little tint of blue would be 6000k and those can cost a bit of money depending on brand.
