Will this cause a problem with my four high mod?

you will be just fine with your 4 high mod. IT dont care what lights its leaving on. It just cares about leaving them on. Good kit too. 5000k= perfect.

ewwwww 5000k :/

doesn't sound to appealing....

but good buy.

i hooked up my hids recently and my high 4 mod did not affect it,

although when i hit the high beam the hids flickered for a bit, theyll do it for a bit until the high-4 module is used to the power change.

Nah, i like the 5000k. Most light output is needed around my house. No street lights anywhere and deer EVERYWHERE.

technically 4300k is brightest, but 5000k is pure white and IMO has the best color.

i never found an exact list of colors and temperatures. some people who say that have 10000k have aqua color while others have more blue. is there any list of colors, with pics?
if you guys by any chance know it would be helpful

Some of the color will vary by the manufacturer of the bulb. There is no set standard in the industry but the colors shouldn't very much if at all unless the manufacturer mislabeled a bulb.
5000K is a perfect compromise between performance and looks. i wouldn't go over 6000K

This Kelvin scale should give you an idea:

Congrats on the purchase, once they are in your not going to want to drive or ride in anything with regular lights in it again.

do they make a conversion kit for those? I swapped out my sealed beams for my Formula and it now uses an open housing which I am ordering a set of H7 hids for it. Not sure what bulb it uses but this site (http://www.eurolamps.com/eurolamps/sealedbeams.htm) makes conversion kits for the sealed beam sets. The set I just got for the Yukon came out awesome!!
