First, the ebay link you provided is for a conversion kit, all you need is the bulb since you already have HID lights.

Second, I think the common consensus is that 6000K is the highest color temp (bluest) that you should go and still get enough light to be safe. Also, Osram and Philips are the only two manufactures that supply OEM bulbs to auto manufacturers, and both offer a 6000k aftermarket bulb (neither make a bulb higher than that though, as it's about the legal limit as far as light output and how blue the color is). I've read that the cheap 8000K - 12,000K bulb from ebay are very low quality and will not last long.

Try these:
