hard for me to tell.
aren't 5300k supposed to be whiter than that, those look like 6000k or 7000k. I thought that about 5000k are whitish and about 6000-6500 are aqua blue/white

If you can't be sure it's safe for you or that you don't know what you're doing, don't risk it. HID's pump alot of juice though that ballast and if you get shocked by it you'll lose operation of your arm for a hopefully just a short time not considering other damage.
yea my glare is that bad unfortunately... but hey 1/2 a year and no problem with cops is fine by me.
only problem i get is SUV drivers flashing me on those sideway streets when nobody else is around.
SUV's flash you!? they have nerve. when suv's pull up behind me and they are lined up with my mirror, it shines right on my face. what i like to do is aim the mirror back at them (if its a long traffic light) and blind them they hate that. but thats what they get for having lights that line up with every single mirror in my car!
Any thing HID light is brighter than what car manufactures put out. I am currently running 12,000 K HID and they are bright, but i prefer the coloring. Now to go optimal with HID 5400-5800K is the best for viewing and driving. Halogen bulbs are just not bright enough but i've found that any HID set up is better and brighter. I've had several HID systems. I've had 6,000K, 8,000K, 10,000K and now 12,000K. Honestly i'd say the 6,000K is the whitest and the best overall but i like the purpleish look i currently have.

you are correct on that statement.. the BEST optimal usage is the 4300 K , but if you like color with some usage 6000 K is plenty... anything up that you will just be seeing color and less OPTIMAL useage.. not saying that you wont see better than your halogens but the color can fatigue the eyes after long amounts of time viewing it such as long trips etc.
the 6,000k Seem to be the whitest i've seen yet. Anything beyond this is a color. I've had my 12K for almost a year now and they aren't fatiguing my eyes but i cant say that for everyone considering we are all different. I would honestly recommend the 6K to anyone who aquires HIDs. They have optimal viewing with out being a color other than white. I've traveled before w/ my 12k from Jacksonville,Fl to Miami,Fl which is a 5hr drive and i did it at night and i had great viewing but when i did this trip with my 6K a year back the viewing was quite brighting. The coloring does tint the bulb and reduce visibility but it isnt much
