Anyone used Lite-Eyes HID kits? I'm having the biggest trouble deciding weather to get the 35w or 50w kit, either seems pretty much the same in brightness.

I would just stay with 35 W kit. Perhaps this thread will help you.

What HID kits are you guys using? Also what bulb, I want to get it as white as possible and try and stay away from yellow or blue. I heard the 6000K is the whitest.

I run 5000K. They seem to be just the right compromise, as 4300K apparently emit the most lumens, about 3200 to 3300, compared to about 2900 lum for 6000K capsules. I would definitely stay away from anything in excess of that.

6000K has a tinge of blue/purple - I don't notice it shining on an object but I notice if I'm looking into the headlights.

I heard about 4300K was the "whitest".

I don't ride at night-so I didn't really get them for night vision.Went with the xentec kit-easy install-no cutting or splicing.Have no idea how long they'll last,but the way they were packed and such was very professional IMO.The connectors are top notch.The wiring for the two different bulbs were indeed NOT the same-so that tells me that the one set was definitely "designed" somewhat different(maybe thicker wiring-it looked like it may have been).The instructions are-well,"not American English correctness" but understandable.They're lookin pretty good on there!!
