I got 6k on my tC...I only got pulled over once for them...Cop said they are perfect brightness...I just needed to adjust them cuz my driver headlight is pointing up...lol...

 

hmm i haven't figured out how people get pulled over for them. they are on audi's bmw's, and other luxury imports

 

people get pulled over for them when they go over about 6000 k. Stock HIDs have between 5700k and 6000k or daylight.
once you get over 6500k you start losing light and gaining color. I wouldn't go over 6000k if I were you.

 

most stock HIDs are 4300K-5000K. IMO dont go any higher than 6000K.

 

Well as stubborn as I am I got the 8ks cuz i am just obsessed with blue and will just have to learn for my self and see how they look when i install em. If I do change em out its only gonna cost like 30 something. So no biggie.

They should be coming in tomorrow and hopefully get some night shots.

Again thanks for info and about that 25 dollars for fix it ticket I confirmed it with a friend at a meet when he said he got a ticket for a loud exhaust.

 

Well just got them today and went for a test drive and looks great but you know how you had your problem with them being pointed up a bit how did you aim them down?
