i had no idea where to put this post. I just want to know that if you have a car with a hid kit can you change the bulbs like to 10k or do you have to buy a new kit or something additional

You can change just the bulbs, but I have yet to find anyone that sells just the bulbs at a reasonable price. Every thing I have seen includes the full kit...anyone else...suggestions?

You can upgrade bulbs only. Just be sure its the same bulb. For example, if you have a 6k D2R bulb, you could do a 10k D2R bulb.

The higher temperature you go, the less bright the HIDs actually are. 4300K is actually the brightest, but most people go with 6000k because of the vivid blue color they have.

So 10000k or 12000k or whatever will be a cool purple color and all, but won't have as much light output.

Oh yeah, and check out xenithxenons.com thats where I got mine from and I love them.

ive seen 20k in real life and i like the color but i guess i would go with 8k or w\e one is the blue one instead of kinda white\shady blue maybe not tho i might be mistaken is there one or two dif blues. cus i know it switches to purple after awhile and then 20k is idk extreme bright white blue i think it was called on ebay.

Ehhh personally I wouldn't go above 8k if you want to be able to still see at night. I have 8k on mine and its still kind of hard to see at night. I'm switchin to a 6k cause light put decreased so much from orginally coming from a 4300k. But if you aren't worried about being able to see at night hell go as high in kelvin as you can haha.
