got any other pics with different angles? i think i'm going to go with the 6000k since that's what everyone seems to prefer for the color/light output. Like ssabripo asked, what angel eye bulbs are you running? THANKS!

SV Concepts III · 01-06-2009, 01:21 PM

6000k is the way to go, I find 8000k to be too blue of a color.

E92-Lighting · 01-06-2009, 09:43 PM

6k d1s

NY SLC 93 · 01-07-2009, 10:40 AM

How do the 8000k compare at night compared to the stock bulbs?

SV Concepts III · 01-07-2009, 12:48 PM

They will put out about 80-85% of the light output of a stock bulb. That is also why I prefer 6000k in addition to the color, it provides a nice compromise between usable light output and color compared with the stock 4300k.

stunn2night · 01-07-2009, 01:03 PM

I got my angel eye from electronicwoot LED there is pros and cons on those too but thats a whole diffrent thread

this is the only other pic i have on my phone left 4300/6000

Sevan@ZSHIFTINC.COM · 01-07-2009, 02:00 PM

We have 6000K and 8000k IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP!

135iowner · 04-30-2009, 12:27 PM

Just switched over to D1S bulbs. bought them off ebay and was wondering if any one had a problem with them flickering off occassionally. I checked all the connections and they are fine. Even put the stock OEM back in and there is no problem with the factories. Any advice why and what i can do it fix this problem. Thanks folks.

BSM 135i · 04-30-2009, 01:00 PM

^^ sounds like the bulbs are defective, can you return them?

135iowner · 04-30-2009, 11:58 PM

I hope so. the guy i bought it from is recommending doing a few things. i tried his recommendations but same ol same ol. These are the 2nd set of D1S bulbs i have tried. Exact same issue with the first set of bulbs and i got burned on returning those. I dont know why i cant get some 6k bulbs that will work just like the factory ones. Any recommendations on good 6K bulbs?

E92-Lighting · 05-01-2009, 10:29 AM

we havent had any problems with mtec

135iowner · 05-01-2009, 11:17 AM

Thanks for the reply. I just emailed you.

E92-Lighting · 05-01-2009, 04:13 PM

stock d1s (4300k) vs mtec d1s (6k)

135iowner · 05-04-2009, 02:42 AM

Thanks for the comparison. So nobody that has bought and installed these MTECS have had problems with the bulbs flickering on/off?
