^Nice comparison chart. It's always going to be hard to tell what the bulbs look like without seeing them in person. Also some companies bulbs might differ slightly than others so 5k and 6k from two different companies could look very much alike. To me I think the HPA look more blue than others like the ones BJ got in his.

I just ordered a philips 5000K bulbs...should arrive tomorrow. Apparently, 6000K is illegal to get, but 5000K is allowed...or so Philips head office was claiming. I hope the 5000K looks good!

Don't you guys get reduced visibility with these lights? I find that especially in the rain it's harder to see.

this might be a little off topic, but i was also looking to get a pair like the ones on my moms rx350, does anyone know what bulbs they are, they look really white compared to ours, and has a slight blue purple cut off line.

also, does anyone know what bulbs we have, are they phillips 85122 4300k?

Changing the Cut off line I believe has to do with the lens not the bulbs.

^it does, the clearer the lens the sharper the cut off line, but i still really the color that the rx350 gives out if anyone knows what bulbs they are

Not really because water on the road (especially blacktop) reflects light anyways, so even at 4300k its hard to see in the rain...
