HID Bi-Xenon Bulb Temp?
 
Does anyone know the stock bulb temp for the Bi-Xenon bulbs? Is it 4300K? 5000K? 6000K?

I like the output and beam on these units and was thinking of doing an HID retrofit on my Titan.

Can anyone help with this info? I can't find it in the manual or online.

Thanks!

I believe that most OEM lights are 4000-5000k and 35 watts.
Check out this site: http://www.sharphid.com/

Should be around 4300k or so for OEM HID's.

Also like above get the new set from SharpHID.com

Interesting site! Thanks!

I would have to get the rebased D2R bulbs to fit into my 9006 sockets on the Titan, this I know. So I'm looking at a bit more expense than the standard bulbs.

Maybe I'll contact SharpHID to see if that's something they offer.

Appreciate the info!

Just remember:
Just because you get the exact bulbs for your truck, doesn't mean it will look the same.
The reflectors play a big part on the color and brightness aswell. What looks white one the S60 might have a hint of blue on the Titan or might have a hint of yellow.
