All OEM HID is 4100k. The reason we know this is because this is the only DOT street legal color temperature for HID lamps.
The HID on Audis is 4100k, the HID on BMWs, 4100k, the HID on the Ford Focus (sick huh), 4100k. BTW, 4300 and 4100 are basically the same thing.
The reason they look different is because of the type of reflection, the Audi and BMW lights look purple because they are PROJECTOR lens, the Lexus is reflector, thats why they're blue.
Go with 4100k!

If you must go higher in the spectrum, 6000k is better than nothing.
4100k is still the best solution though.

So do you think the light output of 4100k and 6000k would be the same?
