HID Temp Question

Anybody know what the factory temp for the HID bulbs in the 05 TL is. IT looks to be on the low side for HID's and I want to make it a little more whiter.

Also looking for bulb number specs so I can change this and the fogs, anybody? I looked at a website and they said two different numbers for high and low beam but I thought these HID's were all in one. Isn't that what bi-xenon means?

you mean the color temperature right? its 4300K, all factory hids are in this temperature range. the TL has b-xenons being that the hid bulb is used for both the low and high beam. when you switch on the high beam, the hid light is reflected into the high beam housing via a silenoid and hence chaning the light output.

Take a pic of the stocks, and then of the new color. I like the darker blue, not aqua, but not violet.
