Re: HID scale
My hid's are no way near as bright a year or so after fitting. My question is can i change to a 5k bulb and still use the existing kit when the originals are 8k. I know the bulbs are not that much cheaper than i whole kit but i have installed mine neatly and so that none of it is exposed.

Thanks in advance
