I think most knowledgable folks on this forum will tell you that going to an 8000k bulb is not an upgrade, but a downgrade with less available light. Regardless, you can find an answer by using the search function on this site.

Here's a site that has 10,000 Kelvin HID lamps but I HIGHLY advise you not to go this route. Like Repecat said, going to even 8,000K lamps is a downgrade and the reason is you will lose usable light. And in rain at night, it's not going to be fun at all. Give this some serious consideration before you lay down your money on something you might find is a bad decision.

I highly recommend using 8000k because they look so cool... I wouldn't do it but I want you to do it.

I know one other TL that has 8000k and they look pretty nice. It gives off an light baby blue hue to it. Be sure to post before and after pictures once you get them installed.

id go 6000k, they look noticable more blue than stock, and with my experience there isnt much less light output (i cant even really tell), driving in rain is the same as far as i can tell as well.
