Re: HID bulbs
What do you want more info on CAN-BUS or hid's?
CAN-BUS is the software the car uses, so you need a hid kit that works with CAN-BUS and does not show faults on the dash

Re: HID bulbs
I have 6000K, they give off a nice blue tint i think and would say it was the most common temp to have. 8000K would be too blue imo. £150 seems ok but what HIDs are they using, get the ones from Hids4u and you know your getting good quality ones 
Re: HID bulbs
hmmm i think ill go for 6000k because i think most people on here have them but like i said could people please upload pix and erm i thought hids were hids i didnt know there were different types, and well i think they must be good if the offer a 3 year warrenty what you guys think??
Re: HID bulbs
I have 8000k and they are too blue.
Its hard to get a good pic of the light emitted from hids
