Just checking that the h4 is the tamora bulb and its low/main...so hid would be bi xenon.

Hopefully do a how to soon if anyone is interested!

I have OEM HIDs and have to wonder if they're worth it, more so now I've had a failure. Dealer wants £363 for one ballast unit. Something of a ripoff, considering you can get aftermarket ballasts for £30.

Correct. 35w 5k is plenty. Don't forget to change the side lights to LED type bulbs otherwise it looks st as they are yellow against the white light of the xeons.

Not all Xenons are white.

After a bulb failure, I bought one with the wrong temp. Looked positively yellow next to the good one.

I think the higher the k value the more blue the light appears.
