HID bulb upgrade

Has anyone upgraded the existing HID bulbs to 6000K? If so, any error readings or more importantly, did this create any problems with burning the existing wiring and/or melting the housing? Not sure if it burns hotter.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

Which headlights do you have, halogen or xenon? If xenon I upgraded my stock 4300k to 6000k. No errors or problems with wires..

Dynomite05,

Where did you get the blue bulbs for your city driving light? I like to get those bulb to match mine blue HID foglight. Btw, did you also get the blue bulbs for your side bumper too? Thanks.

The bulbs for the city lights I bought them from a guy on eBay (http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/neondials/). I have the painted side markers with the oem bulbs on the bumper.
