Thanks for the info, GENEaTAL and NobleForum.

Now without going for the HID, u mean to say that the brightest option i have is the 7500k 35W GP Thunder Bulbs.

is this right?

Also, what temp are the hoen bulbs?

Thanks.

Hey Geneatals,

I have gone ahead and purchased the GP Thunder H8 35W 7500k bulbs from eBay - 2 sets , for the fogs and AE!

Reason going for the 7500k - it being more closer match to the Xenons (as 6000k seems to be the perfect xenon match)

got it for $18 + $6.5 shipping (India) = $24.50

But i hope the install into the bi-xenon lci headlights is an easy one. the other day i had a hard time taking off the oem angeleye bulbs to see what type they are. Hope i dont have to remove the entire headlight out!

It's as easy as the the side markers and/or plate bulbs...you do have an LCI correct...you did once already sounds like..so no worries...
