Default Headlight Bulb

2008 GS460

I'm looking to replace and upgrade the headlight bulbs for my car. What have others done when they replaced their headlight bulb? Will 6000K bulb work and look nice?

6000K will reduce overall output but give you a cleaner white or slightly bluish light. If you stick with a quality brand like Philips it won't reduce your light output as much. Go with a cheap generic bulb, and it'll burn out real soon and output will probably be even worse. Go Phillips my friend, learn from my mistakes! D4S is the size for our cars.

I'm looking at Garax brand. They seem decent.

I've had Garax, they were fairly blue and they were dim.
