Hi,
Our D4 bulbs are not made in China so price will be a little higher than other manufacturers.
MSRP on the bulbs is $69.99/bulb.
Upon checkout, typing in CLGB08 as the coupon code brings your price down to $49.99/bulb
You can find the bulbs here:

Hope this helps,

That's the inside of an FX35 projector bowl that was running a kit bulb, albeit at 55 watts (Which definitely contributed)
Exercise caution!

Hi,
A 6000k bulb does not burn hotter than a 4300k HID bulb. The burners are actually the same. The only difference between the capsules would be the mixture of salts/gases within the bulb. The only thing that can damage a headlight would be UV if the bulb is not properly constructed.
Good point about 55W HID though. That is exactly why we don't sell 55W HID kits. The reason that the headlight in your picture was damaged was probably because a 55W ballast was use with a 35W bulb. This would cause a 35W bulb to burn hotter regardless of color temperature.

I did not say a 6000k bulb burns hotter than a 4300k. I'm saying that an aftermarket bulb burns hotter than an OEM one, especially if it is an overdriven 35w bulb on a ~50 watt ballast. That is all
