Default Anyone running Philips Ultinon Bulbs with 2011 LED Headlights??
I have the 2011 headlights with LED mod, where they stay on 100% birghtness. If I switch to Ultinon Bulbs, guessing 6000k how will the color differ or will it some what blend in.

any experience with 4300K ultinon bulbs i dont seem to be able to find those.

Cargym carries counterfeit Philips. Don't purchase from them.

Mine is stock, while yours is modified, which is why. I am not not quite fond of how 100% brightness it looks since the LED seems to take more of the attraction than the HID.

- Ice Iridium's pic. IceIridium on the other hand, likes either.

USB is stock because the my car came with LED/HID. IceIrdium's car is a 08 IS-F, and he had his modified with the 2012 lights.

It was a phone camera being used so it does look low quality which was expected.

Philips produces these at a at limited basis so, yes in a way they are a bit on the difficult side to get. This also explains the pricing as well.
