Ah I just took my 55w 6000k off ready to sell! Guess I was a bit too late. You'll enjoy the retrosolutions HIDs though, I know I did!

I know this thread is pretty old now but if you got any pictures of your headlights grabber blue gt that would help a lot. Also did you go with 35w or 55w?

Just wanted to throw my 2 cents into the mix. It is best to stay n the 4-5k range. Especially if you do night driving. Blue HIDs are nice and all, but also keep in mind blue can make you tired.

I set all my gauges to RED, and my HID system on my 2012 was 4.3k. I ended up going Silverstar on my 2011 and my new 2013 already has HIDs.

I have heard great things about RS, if I didn't have HID's in my 2013 I would have been on the phone pronto. The kit I used wouldn't let me do high beams on my 2012.

But in terms of the 6-8k HIDs yes the blue looks pretty but it is more of a safety issue than anything.
