Why 10K? That's actually less light output then something within the 4500 to 6000 kelvin range.

4500-5000 is white. 6000 has a slight bue tint to it.



What wattage are you running?

I'm running 3k golden yellow in my fogs...love them, but I really need to swap out my headlights. I rarely run my headlights since I rarely drive at night. I just dread having to run all the wires for the relays...need to do it for my fogs since my drivers side takes forever to warm up.

If you need a relay let me know. I purchased one for my headlights and fogs. I didn't use the one for the headlights, it came built in with the hi/low kit. Mine fire right up and are at full brightness by the time I'm out of the driveway. I use mine every day, it's always dark at 5:30.......

I saw this the other day, great price for a relay kit.
