Bulb Matching Help
Recently I purchased some lights that were all part of an upgrade package.
E92/E93 GP Thunder Light Upgrade Package Angel Eye Color:7500 (H8) (+$0.00) Cornering Light Color:7500 (H3) Foglight Color:7500 (w/o M-Tech bumper)(H8) HID Replacement Bulbs:No Thanks (+$0.00) LED Sidemarker Bulbs:Yes, please include (194-5W) (+$14.95) My question is, what type of HID bulbs should I buy in order for them all to match? Cause I don't really want the blue look. I like the white light.. And I'm not sure if what I ordered matches up with my stock e92 07 HID. And if it's possible can you guys post an example of what it would look like with those GP Thunder bulbs I already ordered? |

For your HID bulbs, I would suggest the Morimoto 5000K HID bulb from TheRetrofitSource.com make sure you pick it up in the D1S bulbs. Some might suggest a 6000K bulb (and if that's what you want, go for the HighPerformanceBulbs.com D1S bulb, everything they make is of great quality, I'd bet this is no different!), but I personally think that will look a bit too blue. If you want to go the more OEM route, Sylvania is going to be releasing the 5000K cool blue (should be called pure white...) bulbs soon. They're availabe from OSRAM (parent company) in Europe, and they're coming to the US soon.
