Review on HID-Warehouse 9006 5000K - Bright White Xenon Replacement Bulbs (1 Pair) - Find Enhanced Lighting Solution! by Alex Barr

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works well but color temperature is slightly off

I had a blown bulb from a cheap HID kit I installed in my car a few years ago so it's time for a new one kit . I thought it would be better to replace both at the same time so that the color temperature and brightness levels are the same. These lamps were well packaged and protected with a transparent cap. I used several alcohol swabs and made sure the bulbs were completely clean before installing. (Any oil on the glass will cause hot spots and premature bulb burnout.) They lit up on the passenger side the first try, and they lit up perfectly on the drivers after I swapped the wires. I've been running with them for about a week and they feel great. My only issue is that I ordered 5000k which are normally bright white maybe with a hint of blue but these whites have a pink tint to them. My wife loves it (and pink) but I'm not thrilled.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competition is here
