RE: just won hid kit on ebay!!!
Frontier = single lamp headlight
Crappy to begin with.
My 4300k is gonna whoop your 8000k seven ways 'till sunday
and besides, PnP kit bulbs are generally inconsistant in performance
And those 8000k's are going to color shift and get even bluer on ya.

RE: just won hid kit on ebay!!!
ALL of them color shift.
Factory OEM bulbs color shift, and they ARE the highest quality HID bulbs you can get
It's just a matter of how long it takes for the color shift to happen.
And if you bought them on ebay, chances are, that company/person that sold it to ya is gonna have a different name in 6 months or so... Hopefully not, but that's the general trend with most of the kits.
Which kit did you get?
The ONLY way it might resist color shifting is if they rebased OEM D2S bulbs...
Mine kit HID's color shifted after something like 70 hours... so like a week or two after I got them
If 8000k really WAS brighter, it would be OEM equipment in HID equipped vehicles.
That's why OEM is 4100 - 4300k...
I'll bring out my 4300k's soon as I get them installed
OEM HID FTW!

Hopefully his supplier will back that
There's very few kit companies that stick around very long, lol.
Don't forget wall shots from 20 - 25 feet away on a non-lit wall! white, if possible, so I can see how much glare the 9006 kits have
At least it's nowhere NEAR as bad as it is in a single high/low beam housing... Fords, Dodges, pretty much anything with a two headlamp system are horribly blinding. Not so much because they're brighter, but because they can't effectively use the light
Here's a little pic from a member named haknslash at HiDPlanet
Notice how much better it is?
Granted you're not going to have anywhere near as much glare as that... Or you shouldn't, at least, but still...
And that blue is gonna hurt your eyes after extended periods of night driving...
RE: just won hid kit on ebay!!!
Yea the 8000k kit I have isn't that blue at all its a light blue almost white!! Mine will light up that wall and whats behind it! I will get a good picture and post it up!!! My hid's are oem replacement like how yours are I will take some pics of kit!!

RE: just won hid kit on ebay!!!
It's not OEM replacement... OEM replacement would be a D2S bulb... Not compatible with a 9006 socket
It's a PnP kit (plug and play).
Not trying to be an **** or anything... Just trying to inform the masses about proper HID usage
