Are the 86 HIDs more yellow/white or do they shine purple and blue too? I apologize I'm not well versed in what strength generates what colour.
Stock hid is 4300k, the blue/purple u see is the cutoff line.
higher the kelvin the more blue/purple it gets (6000k and up) also less light
As the bulb age it turns white/blue
My oem hid are yellow/white, the ones overseas should be the same
If u want to learn about hid, hidplanet.com is a really good forum
