HIDs not working

erm...thats not 10,000K and I completly understand how a colour spectrum works mate and I don't care what refraction you have in there....that is NOT 10,000K you got jibbed.

Sorry to disagree with you mate, but I know my kelvins...and not just in HIDs trust me, there is no way in hell you can ever make me believe that is a 10kK bulbs. It's just not possible. Besides, the light output is FAR too bright for a 35W bulb...not even a 55W bulb could output THAT much light in a parabola focused reflector with a "fisheye" as you like to call it. For light to change colour it must first pass over a "black body mass" Inside the fog lamp housing, it has not done this, its simply passed through a refraction lens with varying degrees of thickness (thats your "fisheye") if you have done your research then you would know that as you pass light through a refraction lens it will indeed change colour ...through the whole colour sprectum. Not just a single colour...but the whole pretty pretty rainbow....not white...but the rainbow.

Looks like you have closer to 5000-6000 more then likely 6,000. I don't care what the box says either...

umm, my 35watt 6000k hid's in my "fisheye" headlights have just as much output as 100watt halogen globes in my highbeams...

for sure...at 6,000K I would expect much more then a 100 wat halogen.... but at 10,000K the light "output" or visible light is greatly reduced.

i have 8000k and they seem to give off a slight purple colour

8000k is the very bluish kind. 10k is almost pure blue. 12k is purplish. 26k-30k is pink.

3000k is yellow

4300k is factory oem

6000k is white

i forgot what green was lol
