Im looking for a pretty close to exact match. Seeing how they are both philips can be a good start. What do you think? Best price ive seen yet also.

Standard OEM headlights are 4300K. Nothing is going to match perfectly. I went with PIAA 11655 H1 Xtreme White Plus which are rating at 4000K and while good match, not perfect. Wish I could have found a 4500K-4700K, but not switching now. Also, I finally moved to 6000K headlight bulbs so even farther off now. So bottom line don't expect a perfect match.

Why not change everything up to 6000K since that's a more common kelvin than 4300k?
