Too blue for my taste, those are much more blue than mine. You will probably have trouble seeing the road at night.

It's really easy. It helps to have small hands. Looking at the back you undo the clip that holds the back plate on. Undo the electrical connector. Twist the ring that holds the bulb counter clockwise until it releases. Pull out the bulb making sure not to touch the glass!!! Installation is the reverse or removal. The hardest part is getting the bulb to sit in there right while putting the ring back on. I had to feel my way through it pretty much the whole time as there's not a lot of room to work with.

6000k is what Acura puts in their TL's. Those are Phillips bulbs iirc. Gorgeous lights those are.
