If you want 5000K you can go with the XenonDepot 5000K HID bulbs.

You want to match the ballast and bulb with the same wattage otherwise it would overdrive the bulb causing it to burn out sooner. 55W often overdrive the 35W HID bulb to obtain the increased light output. As a result, you can expect the HID bulb to burn hotter which can damage your headlight. You can also expect a significantly decreased bulb life.

WOW I didn't expect all that ! . Do you have account in ebay or something so that I can buy the bulbs.


I looked up in the hood and looks like I must remove the front bumper to acsses the low beam bulbs ?

Edit: Philips *does* make 5000k bulbs - but the market is flooded with fakes (Danny was not aware of this).

See5 - Here is a link to XenonDepot D4S 5000k bulbs.
