Just got the bulbs and swap them into the car. The new bulb looks even more yellow than my stock bulb. Do you have any advise about that? XenonDepot??

It's hard to judge by pictures, but are the bulbs in your headlights the original bulbs that the car came with? How old is the vehicle?

Hard to say... It's possible that they are OEM, but OEM bulbs will color shift over time (philips bulbs). 5k bulbs are similar in color/light output to your factory bulbs, but have a "crisper" tone to them. Take a look at the first page of this post for some pretty accurate comparison pictures.

bought mine last week and arrived within 7 calendar days (i'm located in VA). Installed them in yesterday and very happy with them so far. Nice, bright white light, this should be the standard (5000k) in all vehicles. Will check in later on to provide review on durability, etc. Smooth transaction with Xenon Depot. Wish I had gotten it at the special pricing. Also, wish I didn't waste $40 on supposedly old stock Philips OEM bulbs somebody was selling on eBay. They seemed legit when compared with the photos on CL, but one of them gave out after a month and they looked purple-ish.
