What K to get???
i guess that you could replace your bulbs to regain some brightness but i wouldnt even bother with it yet.
we have a 00 LS w/~65k on it and drive it a decent bit at night yet lights look bright as ever.

no he hasn't lost his mind... i have a friend who has 30,000k... and no this is not a typo. he had 15,000k before. i never heard of 30,000k or knew that there was one but then again he said that it just came out... not sure on the brand though. but right now i haven't seen them in person. but my other friend said that it made his stock hid's look like garbage... by the way they both have gs's. to me i would prefer anything from 6000k - 10000k.
6000K is just about pure white, but will appear blue next to stock HIDs, which are around 4000K+.

Once you get above 20000K there is very little difference in color - you are in the very blue/purple region. The 'K' is degrees Kelvin, representing the temperature of a black-body radiator. As you heat up a black-body beyond 20000K, the increase in heat changes its color progressively less after it gets white hot.
