Best customer service I have ever had and the product is incredible. You need H11 and 4300k if you want it to look like your BMW's stock HIDS. anything aboe 4300k Is not what car companys use and it will have more blue to it than your Old BMW ones.

Welcome to the forum!! From one white owner to another - nice clean ride man! There are many places to get HID kits, there are a few sponsors on this board whom have sold many products, including hid kits, to members.

Give them a holla, can't wait to see what you do with that white hoe!

Looks like RT got you taken care of for the HIDs. I have heard good things about them but haven't personally purchased HIDs from anyone as of yet.

does anyone know what color the stock HIDs on the escalade are? mine right now are kinda blue and i want them to look just like the escalade ones.

55 or 35w??

thank you.
55 or 35w??

your choice. I did 55w cause I like the brightest. but 35W will be alot less punishing to the oncoming traffic.

 

[Lil CacAzn Nick]

but both will look like the factory escalade lights? thats the look im going for. the ones i have now are way too blue.

 

[Rollin Thunder]

4300k 35W is what Gm uses. 55W will be more yellow due to wash out. I would just stick with 35W if you want it to look stock.

Your not going to be able to look like the Esky HID in any way.
They have projectors and actual quality systems, makes them look different colors at various angles and you will either look only white, blue or yellow.
Don't impersonate Eskys, makes it look like you want one but can't afford it

he meant color in general. Notice the "way to blue" comment.

Its just the size of the ballest. IMO do slim as its easier to hide the system (keep it stock looking)

I just got the 5k 35watt kit from v-leds.com and they look great. I didn't want to much blue and these were just right, mostly white light with just a hint of blue.
