Best HID bulb

BimmerValeT · 12-02-2009, 03:48 AM

I bought a pair of 8000k bulb from DDMtuning and the bulbs make some yellow color. Does it mean the bulb are defective?
i'm thinking to buy a new pair of 10,000k

Any suggestion?

Return them and get 4500k-6000k

You're not going to be able to see shit with 8000k or higher.

ya...return them...
5000k already has preety cool color and you won't blind yourself

6k D1s bulbs will output a white color with a sight blue tint to it

If they are changing color, there is something wrong. We carry them in 6000k which is a pure xenon white or 8000k which is an aqua blue. Check to see if there is a warranty on the bulb set with DDM.

Sounds like you got 3000k bulbs. DDM HID kits come with a lifetime warranty.

D1S bulbs = 1 year, chances are you will never need it
Raptor kits = Lifetime warranty and only $29.99.
