Yeah, will see how I go with it.
Problem is I have a rather bad neck problem, so any strenuous use under a car makes me immobile for a while, copping a fair bit of pain (hence why I stopped modding cars)
Cheers for the link Stuart, after a neutral color, so the 4300k are best suited for me.

Well, the part number listed shows as 4300k for factory, and according to chart the 4300k should be neutral white
6K comes in just a shade bluer *used to have 6ks on my magna, notable difference*

Actually, how silly am I. The last set i pulled out were 6000k
Probably had a change inbetween 1998 and 2010.
Interesting fact; the guy who sold me my car had to get a replacement bulb from audi for a road worthy.
$100 a bulb lol, for an osram 6000k.

Think that's bad?
I rang Repco, as I thought "yeah, they could get for cheaper" LOL
$256.00 per globe, including a delivery fee.
The store clerk was extremely helpful, took the time to make the call, and even had a joke himself, full well knowing that I wasn't going to buy them.
Great sales man, pity about the price.
