I purchased my 8000K from Plasma Garage and they work great. A better, more blue color that gets a lot more attention on the road compared to the stock 4300K (although not as bright).

MBAMGPWR,

So is it more blue but not as bright as before?

Thanks,

Correct. The color is more blue then white but emits less light. I personally think the 8000K helps other drivers notice your car more on the road then the brighter 4300K because of the difference in color (plus the 8000K looks sweet too! :p).

I would much rather go with a 6000K Xenon bulb since not only is it blue, it also emitts the right amount of light. JMO though. 8000K looks more like a dark bluish/purple than a blue though.
