i thought it was 4300? like one of these...

also here

but you can get cheaper d2s bulbs around... 6000k looks better (bluer) but has a lower light output...

That's what I thought, but had seen somewhere on the forum that someone said 6000K so wanted to double check.

And what Jazz stated the 4300K will put more Lumen's out than the 6000K.

I appreciate the help guys.
