Default 4300k or 6000k?

I am swapping out my 8000k dual beam hids for either 4300 or 6000k. I can find several pics of the 6000k but not many 4300k. Can anyone upload some pics of 4300k at nite? I am lookin for not as much blue tin to them as the 8000k. I like a tiny hint of blue but thats it. I know the lower the K the more useable light they put out. In the rain the 8000k just dont cut it. Right now i'm leaning towards the 6000k but i'd like to see some good nite shots of the 4300k. Any feedback is also appreciated. Thanks guys

If you can upload the pics via "manage attachments" i'd appreciate it. Otherwise the firewall at work mite block them. I know photobucket does not work but imageshack does.

alrite, sounds good. i didnt realize the stock ones were 4300k. i saw them on a GT early this morning, 5am ish, and honestly my first thought was "wow, what a waste" . It was the first time i saw them in person in the dark. Maybe its just me but they didnt look that great. So i'd love to see some other pics before i sell myself on that opinion. Thanks bud

sorry man, i didnt mean it to be a total waste of money. Basically i though ford could have done a better job. No doubt they are 100x better than stock but when compared to aftermarket hids i think they fall short. Granted this is only my opinion and i've never used them personally. hope i didnt come off wrong, didnt meant to offend you

as long as they are H13 you should be fine. make sure you get a dual beam kit if you want to keep your high and low. several kits just offer low beams
