Philips 4300k Color

does anyone have these in there car? one of my oem bulbs blew out so i replaced them with a pair of these..

The bulbs are blue for about 5-10 seconds when i turn the lights on, but after that they are yellow. THere pretty bright, but they look the same as halogen bulbs. Even from behind the drivers seat..

The oem OSRAM's looked more purplish.. i thought the philips had a slightly blue tint,. Not like 6k, but still a little blue..

thanks..

Why don't you just upgrade to 6000k bulbs, they look at lot better and so far I didn't hear anything bad about them.

i do. and i like them.
Mine aren't like halogen though.
I thought they had more of blue tint than the oem ones in the beginning, but now it kinda seems like it's got some greenish tint like the ones in M5 but overall, i am a one happy buyer.

Stock bulbs are made by Osram. The number represents the temperature. As long as the temperature stays same, there will be no difference on color whether it's Philips or Osram.

Just like TypeSDragon said, if you want a bluer color, get 6000K.
