Default HID bulb replacement options?

So my OEM HIDs went out and I replaced them with xenondepot 5000k which ive read were closest to stock color. Besides having that bluish tint they are definitely not as bright as OEM. Are there any other options out there that are better? Im looking to get as close to OEM look as I can without spending $300 for a set.

No one has any input on this? I know a lot of people are using xenondepot replacements. But no one notices they arent as bright?

OEM bulbs are 4300k and they will have better output than higher temp ones. If you want max output, get the phillips 4300k ones from xenondepot.
