Default hid question ???

Hey Guys,

I have installed replacement hid bulbs on my is300. I bought 12k hid bulbs through hidnation.com. the bulbs came in and installed fine. I turned the lights on and they light up white with a hint of blue, looks like its between 6k and 8k I wanted to know if this is due to the ballast handling a set ammount of kelvin or could it be something else?

thanks for the help with this

The ballast has nothing to do with the color of the light, it just provides the bulbs a stable and constant power supply. The bulbs dictate the color of light.

Contact the guys you got it from and get it warrantied.
