Default 6000k burn in time?????

I just installed the 6000k bulbs in my car it is a 98 gs and the color of the bulbs dont look much different. Will they burn in and turn a bit more blue and if so how long will that take?

Thanks

Cool

Too my 6000K Phillips about a week and a half - two weeks to burn in. I was driving a 1/2 hour every night at the time.

They are already much more blue and i am very happy with the way they look.
Does anyone know how long it will take for them to peak out in terms of getting blue?
I have had them on for about two weeks now you think that is as blue as they will get?

well in general over time they get bluer and bluer until they die. but what you see how should be pretty much how they look for the most of their life span

Yup. Your bulbs should look perfect within a couple weeks or so. Just give it time.
