HIDs will be a better match with 8000K LEDs for sure, but I don't think it looks too bad with the philips if you want a slight bit of contrast to define the brows. It's your personal taste.

Here's a DIY one of our customers made with our HID kit (which we no longer carry, sorry), but process should be pretty much the same.

Just wanted to ask a question really. I'm from the UK and have tried many many different led bulbs, always resulting in the leds melting and some have even fallen off and are stuck in the brow. Previous leds i've bought look exactly like the ones you sell and thats the reason i'm sceptical that they're any different. The last led bulbs i used were a 'new' design and had a heatsink to protect the bulb. They lasted a month till the enevitable happened and i got a bulb warning. The heatsink had melted off and underneath was the same basic bulb design.
If i was to purchase a set of your leds would they be guaranteed to last? Bear in mind i'm from the UK so ideally i don't want to replace them again.
Also a shipping price for 2 pairs of leds. My hids are 6000k so what would you recommend?
P.s. most of the leds i've used always look purple/blue and never white...

Although LEDs may share a similar chipset layout, there are a lot of things that separate one LED from the other on a component level. What I can tell you is that my LEDs are rated for 50,000 hours in a clean room environment under regulated voltage. However, when introduced into a live vehicular environment, any number of factors can cut the life of ALL leds from rust, corrosion, to current surging, to over insertion. Not all vehicles will suffer from any or all of these issues though, but we've taken steps with our units to continue to evolve (now in version 3) and improve our products to extend life and try to mitigate some of the potential problems that might pop up on some vehicles.
Now, to your question on color matching. This is difficult because not all HIDs are measured the same as HIDs are a kelvin range and not precise like LEDs are. 6000K also kind of straddles the edge between white and blue. My 5000K are a pure white while 8000K is white with a slight bluish hue. Generally, what I recommend to my customers is if you detect any sort of blue in your setup, go with 8000K. If not, go with 5000K.
Shipping to UK is flat $5.

If anyone has read these 31 pages of reviews and pictures and are still debating about it... JUST DO IT! AZN Optics is amazing! I got my package in about 2 days and there was a issue with one of the bulbs and he assured me installation directions and replaced the bulb to me without any type of hesitation. I have been buying car parts off many forums, diffrent sellers and he has been the most professional and responsive to all my emails. his quailty of products and shipping deserve every penny. I have some pictures if you guys want to see, (glove box, interior, lisence plate, trunk, eyebrow) just let me know.
Thank you again Azn Optics!
