Evening guys and girls, Just wondered if anybody could answer my question:
Can I swap out the standard Xenon bulbs on my S3 to a pair of higher colour temp bulbs such as 6000k or 8000k bulbs without changing the standard ballasts for a HID kit?
My bulbs look really white in the dark which is obviously better than a yellow tinge you would get from a standard halogen bulb. The thing is there is a lovely A7 up the road from me and every time I see it in the dark with its lights on it gives off a really cool blue light, it looks great!
I'm not interested in getting a HID kit to achieve this look if it's the only way possible. I also realise that the higher colour temp bulb, you lose some light output. I'm only after changing the dipped beam.
