Hi,

Our new improved shipments have much less defects than before, we also do have 2 year warranty, so we can do an exchange for you if the part becomes defective within the 2 year period. Other than that, only other customers can reply to you on their review of our product!

Thanks!

So, I would like a nice BRIGHT set of low beams.. Mine seem a little dim, even after the headlight restore.. I would prefer a pure white.. So i'm guessing to get the 8000k? I will be ordering on Tuesday.. (Payday) LoL Still have the $15 off promotion?

6000K is pure white and 8000K is white with light blue tint.
So white would be 6000K. THanks! Don't forget to add Facebook group to have a chance to win another free kit! Thanks~

Yes, the lower the Kelvin the brighter, so 6000K is brighter than 8000K

Thanks`

5000K is closer to OEM color which is white with light yellow tint.
and 6000K would be pure white and in some cars depending on the headlight housing cover may be pure white or very slight blue in it. THanks~

I ordered a set of h7 6000k for my 98 es300. Ordered them saturday and it was shipped out monday, received them today. Very fast shipping and great product, easy install. The only problem i had was when i first installed them they worked fine. I turned the headlights off then back on a few minutes later and the passenger side did not turn on. Then i turned them off then on again and it worked. But other than that it seems to be working fine and hope it'll stay that way. Thanks Michelle!
