Default Factory HID

My first time driving at night tonight.. I notice the HID is more of a yellowish color then white. Is that normal?

Yes, yellower HIDs have a higher lumen output. If this is a used RX, replacing old bulbs with new bulbs will bring back the lost light output.

Look for Osram CBI (Cool Blue Insense) when you need replacements- they are high quality HID bulbs with higher output and whiter color than factory oem bulbs.

Amazon has them for a decent price:
