4300k is yellowish white.. and and puts out the most amount of light and looks good in the A4 projectors because from on-coming traffic they look prupleish.. the a4s are good projectors.. but the 5000k is the whitest.. and nice looking.. and if you have Halogens right now then your bulb is H7 your fogs are H11 bulbs

Nope! The 4300k are the closest to pure white and 5000k already goes toward blue.
Google a few charts as some are very good at explaining and showing the differences

with expierence of having all different K's in the past i see the 5k as being the whitest.. the 6 k is starting in the purplish white and then 8 is blueish white, and 10 is most blue then 12k gets into more deep purples. 4500k and 5000k are almost identical but the 4500 has more yellow to it. as ive driven next to people with both the 4500k is just a slight more white, vs 5000k being WHITE

Exclamation Important updates on VVME true Bi-Xenon H4 HID kit

Happy New Year everyone:

I started this thread back in November of 2008 and I bought a true Bi-Xenon H4 HID kit from VVME and installed by an Audi master mechanic on 20th November. Unfortunately, the HID kit has failed terribly. The High beam function is now dead for no reason, one of the HID bulbs turns off at will during driving at night and it came back on after a few minutes as it wishes. Audi master mechanic has examined the whole system and everything is hooked up as instructed by VVME so the kit is a failure.

On top of that, when I contacted VVME in China, apparently that's where their customer service department is, their service suck! Their 14 months warranty is a bunch of BS, you have to ship the defected part(s) back to Beijing, China, not to the U.S. distributor or office first before tey will send you a replacement. I understand that the HID kit is cheap, for under $100 but the quality of the product is inferior. May be there are other HID kits that is better, anyone care to recommend another HID kit? I need to find another one to replace mine, it only lasted over a month, that's not cool!

just as Saudi said , check http://www.vvme.com/hid-conversion-kits-c-44.html for your right hid kit... they are chinese made cheap but good quality ones but have US distributer in California......


so if you can order directly from their US distrabuter in CA, it will be much cheaper than order from their website cos you can save so much shipping fee....
