Advice From The HID Experts...

Remove this ad
Alright, looking at the super white 194 LED installed in the triangle light, what color temp do you HID experts think will come the closest to a perfect match? My gut tells me 6000k like SammyZ, but I'm not positive. I plan on purchasing two 35W sets this weekend from Sharp HID...

Re: Advice From The HID Experts...

I wasn't aware that the 194 came with different k ratings, just colors blue, white etc................. the white is a perfet match for the 6000k HID lights Mine match great with my HID head lights and Fog lights. Try this site http://stores.shop.ebay.com/MotoringMax__W0QQ_armrsZ1 they have great quality LEDs.
Don't buy cheap my first pair lasted only 1week.

Re: Advice From The HID Experts...

Oh thanks, but I'm good with LEDs already. I have them all around and also inside. I was asking which color temp HID bulb looks like it will come the closest to the super white LED I already have in the triangle lights. I think the closest will be 6000k, but I'm looking for input on that. THX!

6000k


Although if u swapped those out for whiter ones, 5000k looks best on the white in my opinion.
