i dont know why you would need options as to bulbs, only the h7 fits

i have the 8k from vvme, and i feel they are a little on the light side as compared to other 8k's i've seen
I was just curious becuase when i was on vvme they gave me different bulb choices and i didnt know if any of them fit besides the h7. thanks.

8k look pretty good on projector headlights, my friend has 12k on his bike and it really doesnt look bad at all. They look pretty purple though.

Anything other than stock Audi temp HID's is poor light output. above 4300k, you are getting less output, plain and simple. It just depends if you want to give up visability for a different color. 10000k is just stupid.

Agreed on your points. All OEM xenon lights are actually 4300k, but differences in projector lenses and housing shapes distort the light slightly from maker to maker, which is why some OEM lights look different colors than others. 4300k is the closest available range to natural daylight. I have had 4300k and 5000k in past cars, and (currently) 6000k in my Audi. I can say that the 6000k kit does still put out good light, far better than halogen, but I can see a difference for sure between the "white intensity" of the 6000k kit compared to the 4300k that I had in my Z. In the future, I will stick with 4300k and 5000k. The 6000k is good, and I don't regret getting it, but I probably will stay slightly lower in the future just for the additional whiteness of the light.
