Looks great my friend, thanks for sharing!

Ya tell me they do not make a world of difference! What is the Kelvin rating on the ones you received?

Rutcutter · 04-07-2008, 08:59 PM

Where can I find that rating?

dieselpowered · 04-07-2008, 09:04 PM

Box should have it on there...most likely they are 6000K.

NightOwlHID · 04-07-2008, 09:12 PM

those are indeed 6k's

dieselpowered · 04-07-2008, 09:16 PM

That is what I was thinking.

NEVERENOUGH · 04-07-2008, 10:33 PM

That looks sharp I plan on doing this to mine in the near future. I put HID's in my Chevy and man what a differance they made. I love driving my truck at night now.

Whats your rating on yours? Dont see how they could be any brighter.

NEVERENOUGH · 04-08-2008, 08:37 AM

A hi lo feature is nice in states like Az where we can make our teryx street legal. I would also like to know how brite the nite owls are.

Oh you misunderstood me, I was not implying that mine were any brighter, the Kelvin Rating actually has to do with the color temperature of the light.

Here are some examples.

1700 K: Match flame
1850 K: Candle flame
2800-3300 K: Incandescent light bulb
3350 K: Studio "CP" light
3400 K: Studio lamp, photo floods, etc.
4100 K: Moonlight, xenon arc lamp
5000 K: Horizon daylight
5500-6000 K: Typical daylight, electronic flash
6500 K: Noon daylight
9300 K: CRT screen.

Color temperature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
