The Kelvin numbers (ie 6500K, 4300K) don't reflect on the bulb's brightness, but rather the colour of the light output. The higher the number, the less light is actually produced or our eyes can pickup.

If you compare a 6000K bulb with a 4300K bulb, you may find that the 6000K bulb looks brighter when looking at it directly, but when you sit in the car, you will notice that the 4300K light makes everything more visible at night.

I personally wouldn't go higher than 6000K as that is just on the edge of becoming blueish.

I myself am looking for projector headlights also as I don't like the stock ones. Eventuall I will find some nice ones

That's it. I'm telling them about the mix up. My first car had crappy lights (well the.lens I guess was to blame. all calibras had crappy lights from stock) but still. Driving around with lights that have little light output sucks. I'm not doing it again. Time to take a stand!! Jks hahahaha

Couldn't get proper pictures of the halos themselves. Don't judge :p
And I have emailed Mars.

Yes I did. They are really good there- honest and good guys.

Btw everyone. I'm not trying to personally sell something. I was just asked to let everyone on here know that the guy who owns the orange lancer on their site is selling his whole sound system..JBL I think. If interested, call CC.

So who is MARS? I don't find them in the sponsor list or anywhere... Do they have a website where they have the headlights listed?

belle_tb_ES · Postby **belle_tb_ES** » Wed Mar 20, 2013 1:53 pm

Apologies.
They are a company...Clayton, Victoria I think. They have them listed them on their website and eBay, same price.
