Another HID question

I want an HID kit for my stock housing, but I had my TYCs for so long I forgot what size bulbs fit. Also, I was looking around and I notice different kinds like 4300k, and 6000k, etc. I don't know which one to get. I want the look that looks like an s2000 or an acura TL when seen from a distance. Can someone help me out here?

ser02rav4 is an unknown quantity at this point
it depanding what you wanna get: more K will give you more colorful output, but a point is only projector gives that BMW/audi etc color not a bulb.All of them have OEM 4100K system or sometimes 6K, but 6K will reduice white light output on the ground, so maybe it wont enough for you.By the way TYC doesnt work well with HID kit, you`ll need change projs.
check out my ride and see the difference at cardomain.

I'm getting an H4 4300K pure white kit for the stock housing. Keep in mind that the sale by vendors is illegal, so good luck finding one.

wonderz is on a distinguished road
finding a kit is not that hard.... find replacement HID bulb is hard
btw your TYC uses H1 bulb type.

Try to find someone in the Canada forums. They can get them up there for you.

I want to get rid of my TYCs and go with stock black housing (if you understand what I mean). and it's H4 size? I've seen some HIDs in some cars that tend to change hues when seen from different angles. Are those the 4300k kits?
