Re: HID kits
It's the colour temperature.
4300k is the factory temperature.
6000k is the most popular for aftermarket as it's a bit bluer
Anything above 6000k is chav / ricer / gowl territory imo!

Re: HID kits
Yeah, that's an old question there are a good few threads about hids in angel eyes on here
I think the story is that the manufacturers say on the box don't use HIDs, but ppl do it anyway. It's your own risk
