Question Change the Bi-Xenon Bulbs to 6000k?

I believe the factory bulb is 4300k. I personally like a slight blue tint to my headlights which would be a 6000k bulb. Has anybody changed their bulbs out? I'm thinking about doing this but want to make sure it isn't a problem.

It's not a problem. I changed to 6000k and so have most MB owners.

Great. Where do you guys get the bulbs from? Anywhere particular or just anywhere that sells HID kits and bulbs?

Hi dynomite05, I'm thinking of doing the same thing but wasn't sure that the Hidextra bulb wouldn't damage the OEM ballast or anything else.

So what is your experience with these bulbs, are you happy with them?
any bad side effect?

Please let me know, I'm trying to get some answers for a while.

Thank you!!
