i was browsing the net , and came across helios hid kits, a buddy of mine has them and he loves them, but i was wondering what k I should get to achieve the prolumen 6000k look, and brightness, they have 6000k as well but I don;t think they will match prolumen, seeing how they have 3,5,7,8,9,10,12, which ones do you guys think i should get , and does anybody have any experience with them, they're tuv certified, and iso and come with a pentium stage 3 in their ballasts for security, overall I heard good things about helios, but wanted to know what you thought of them and what k I should get, I was thinking, 7000k, to get that bmw/tsx look. thanks

Keep in mind that the higher the temperature (K rating), the less light you will have. I recommend you get 5000K.

Also, how much of a price difference is there between the helios and the ones available on this forum through the sponsor? You might want to get one from Devin instead.

thanks for replying, oh for sure , I know about the higher k and and less output, the reason i was thinking of 7k, is because I thought it would be the closest to the prolumen 6000k which I have in my other car and the output, and the colour is great
