For the HID kit i'm only looking into the 4300-5500k range. THe only range which gives white light and more lumens on the road then halogen ones.

I'm still lookin into whether GEs or silverstars put out more usable light on the road, price isnt an issue since if they burn out CT will replace them under warantee.

What would you guys recommend ?? I know there are alot of HID kit haters out there and I personally dont like them either ... but only when the colour temps are ridiculously high which results in more glare and less usable light which is a lose lose situation for both the user and other drivers. Of the 4300-5500k kits ive seen here on fitfreak the majority do not suffer from a significant amount of glare which is why i'm looking into them. I do alot of travelling with a significant portion of it at night on the freeway which has sections which are unlit. Safety is of utmost concern with aesthetics coming second.

Please advise guys

 

Even if price is not an issue, dont spend on halogen bulbs. They do make a difference than the wacky factory ones, but if a Real difference is what you looking for, get HID's. I recommend the 5000-5500 temp. since youre looking for the brightest(no matter what brand, this temp is pure white color). The 4300's are bright, sometimes too ridiculous, some even tend to be yellowish. Actually, ive seen many Fits with HID's in different color temperatures, and maybe because of the good design of the headlamp, they do not blind people.
