Default light temp affects bleeding. higher the temp toward blue/purple more bleed

even in HID housings.

Default Ask the seller, to provide 2 OEM valeo HID projectors, and 2 D1S lamps...

with the 2 ballasts. That would be a much better setup, essentially the same as factory HID housings. You would swap out the halogen projectors for the HID projectors.
Any other setup, as in retrofitting HID lamps to use with the halogen projectors, is improper.
BTW. that seller, is first class, on AZ mostly.
