Yes, the Kelvin number is simply a measure of the color, has nothing to do with power. The stock ballasts will work fine.

In the end i want a nice blue/white.

any advice???

I would go with the 8,000K but if you want something more blue go for 12,000K.

Could anyone tell me how to remove the headlight cap? I have HID lights but there is condensation inside the headlight, and I just want to wipe it off. PM me please!
