I would say HIDS4LESS.COM, but it's going to take them 8-10 weeks to fill my HID H1 order :-(

Default SPP. You may want to go w/a higher K bulb...like 7K-10K.

50W ballast will decrease the Kelvin quite a bit. Just ask S4Madman, he's got 10K w/50W and it makes my 6K bulbs look yellow when next to each other.

With 50W ballast and 10K, it is whiter than a 6K bulb.

For the brightest output, Osram Xenarc 5,400K with 50 watt is best but it's a tad yellow.
