Some of the LED go up to 10-11K which is very blue. Don't go by the name as much as the temp rating. 4300K is our stock HID.

Make sure they will fit where you want them. Click the more info button for eng specs (sizes). http://www.superbrightleds.com/specs...specsHP360.htm

Good luck.

ya i saw that it said cool white there, but when u click on the buy now and go to where the bulb is. there is a drop down window where u can choose the color, but the options you have for the colors say white and blue. the other bulbs say cool white. so i emailed them asking them to verify. thanks for the info on the temp rating.

Are you asking which lights does the guy in post #145 have? If that is what your asking then he has these.
Click here Then its the one that says " WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb" toward the bottom and the color = Cool Blue.

Hope this helps!

Can you run 12 LEDs in the Doors? Will it hurt it at all?

You can if they will physically fit. Will not hurt anything. I recall that several are running 12's in the map lights and I think I saw that some are running 12's in the doors....but not 100% sure. I did not because I only saw them in Cool White @ 9500K and Warm White @ 3200K and I elected to go with Natural White.

I actually tried my 12s that I got for my map lights today and tried putting them into the doors and I like the way it looks in the doors, so I will order some 12s for the doors. And yes they will fit, was just wondering if it might be too powerful LED for the door, and cause problems, etc..

THey are low power draw, don't get hot....u shoud be good. I can see 12's being a good choice especially in Cool White since it bumps the lumens up about 50%.
