Do anyone know how to install HID into a 08 tl. i want to change the bulb????????? Any Idea???

08 TLs already come with HID lights. All you have to do is change the bulb if you want a different colored light output. Raising the Kelvin of the bulb generally gives you less light output and more of a purplish hue.

Anything above 5k will get you "blue-ish tint". YOu will lose some lumen and it actually harder to see(bad for your eyes) in blue. 4.3K is the best(stock, correct me if I am wrong) and is used by most car manufacturers. I always wanted to have 3k (true yellow) but it is probably a cop attraction. The blue/purple tint is coming from the cutoff, you can take the projector out and do a washer mod or something. I am sure someone has done cutoff mod on this board. (I am still new)

why change HID Bulb when your car is 2008?

change it when it needs too, why waste $200 for new bulb?

my old car had 8000k and 10000k bulbs in it, and honestly, 10000k looked great but it was pretty damn scary going around a sharp turn that you didnt know. and 8000k is almost the same but not as bad. i will never go higher for the headlights... but fogs is a different story, i just bought 8000k kit for those

I changed my 4300k to 8000k, because my vendor didn't have the 6000k I wanted. Doing a swap to 6k soon though. Simply look for d2s bulbs, my vendor sells them now for $50 with a 1-2 year warranty, and usually after that he'll still hook you up with discounts.
