I am looking to get a pair of these and was wondering if they would cause any problems in my stock TL-S? Input would be nice and yes I know they arent going to be as bright as say 6000k or 8000k I just want them for the color aspect. Thanks

They are NOT going to be as bright as you think. The best visible light output is between 4100K - 5000K. Once you go out of that range you start losing visibility. Yes, 15000k 35Watts bulbs will work, and they will produce the same 35Watts, but it will be outside of the optimum visible color range. Stay with 5000k or below for the best performance.

15K HID's will provide about the same light output as a halogen bulb, and if you are used to the factory HID's in the TL you will be disappointed. As well I'll guarantee that you'll get a ticket as these are PURPLE! They are not white nor whitish blue, they are PURPLE!

You can go ahead and get these bulbs, but the look may be worth more than the trouble. The max to go with is about 8K bulbs and then again some members have gotten tickets for it. Also I should add that you should get yourself a flame suit and many people will start calling you a ricer for putting that on a TL-S...

They should work but it's not worth the trouble with the police. They're purple and stand out real easily. and its ugly..ill go with 6k at most

that will look so whack your gonna wanna slap the ish outta yourself after you do it. that ish is for civics and 12 year old kids! thats a big 2 thumbs down!

I hate cars

Agreed. Even though I think it's ugly, it wouldn't bother me too much. However, you will produce a ton of glare for other drivers coming head on and good luck in the rain. The reasoning on these things are insane. Let's cut the light output in half so they can be purple. Makes no sense.
