Fleet, I think you're talking about the MTEC HID's.. These are just bulb swaps.. In any case.. I have the MTEC 4350K bulbs. I like them a lot. Clean and white. Matches the headlights very nicely...

thanks....just needed a confirmation, I'll prob go with the Mtecs..for the fogs. I'd also like to switch out the turns / parking bulbs for white instead of the orange....anyone know where I can get them and what the number is?

WTF? ? I'm asking for a comparison between two specific bulbs and I provided you with links I got from other threads that I did a search to get. Im trying to get more opinions specifically between these two bulbs....didn't think I need to do a search for that...basically I wanted updated thoughts. So try to comprehend the question before you are in such a hurry to recommend a "search" instead posting your thoughts which is what I was asking for. Sorry for wasting your time, maybe you should be doing something else though b/c many topics here overlap but specific questions may not. These forums are set up so people can share info an opinions etc...not post stupid ass answers like "ohhh use the search." Now you have just wasted my time.

If you want to match your OEM HID, get the Mtec 4350k. Nokya 7000k will be too blue.

sesegal99 · 04-11-2007, 03:02 PM

thanks...that is what i'm doing.

just4kickz · 04-11-2007, 03:06 PM

these errorless?

SES_D · 04-11-2007, 03:18 PM

Nokya Artic Whites. You won't regret it if you have halogens

Josh49 · 04-11-2007, 03:22 PM

7000 K are not white though...

sesegal99 · 04-11-2007, 03:46 PM

errors? they should be....they are the exact same wattage, just doing a bulb replacement. I have the Xenon Adaptive PKG so I want a crisp white, not the blue colored.

mtec 4350k or xenesis tru-match from bimmian will do what you want to do.. As long as they are the same type and wattage, you shouldn't have any errors.. J49
