Led colour xenon headlights

[Cmw9]

Is it possible to change the colour of the led bulbs in the factory xenon headlight unit on the 8p. Would like to make them slightly bluer. Anyone done this?

I've pondered this, the 4300k colour temperature is a bit orange for me, Id prefer a 6000k White light...it must be possible as what if a couple of them fail during use?

I have 6000k in mine which look fine.

Was it fairly straight forward? What kit did you use?

Just get replacement 6000k d3s bulbs (if its a facelift car) and swap them over. Only thing is getting to the bulbs is a pain!

How close a colour match are the 6000k bulbs to the drls's? I hate that my headlights are slightly more yellow than my drl's!

Some 6000K can be a bit too blue , better of with 5000K .

I think you have to change headlight bulbs to match the LeD I don't think you can change the Led

i may have misunderstood the OP, the LEDs cannot be changed which is why i had to change my original 8000k bulbs to 6000k ones. the match is fairly good.
The 8000k bulbs look way too blue for the LEDs.
