Re: MACH hid bulbs?
I think 4,300k is OEM output. If you're happy with OEM, just stick with it.

Re: MACH hid bulbs?
I had 6000k for a long time in mine but switched to 4300k about 6 months ago, definitely a better output but I like how white the 6000k are.

Re: MACH hid bulbs?
I got Philips 85122+ bulbs. The stock bulbs are 85122, the + bulbs are made to match the color of older bulbs. As HID bulbs get older, they get dimmer but whiter. These are whiter from the start and bright like brand new HID bulbs. They are about 5000k in the color spectrum. The 85122+ is what BMW, infiniti etc use from the factory, that's why they're HIDs are much whiter. Got mine lightly used from the hid planet forums for less than $100.
