HIDS 5300k vs 6000k

Question: if one of the HID bulb broke/fried/whatever you want to call it, then i can just buy a new bulb (regardless of brand) and plug it in?

so every one here has mculloughs, any one have experience with the phillips HIDs?

I heard they were as good as Mculloughs (if not better) , but I also heard they were twice as expensive...

[WTF??]

But to me its all about the installer not the product.

....and how often you use them lol

Well, it depends on what you mean by "bulb". If you're talking about a common bulb like a 9006/H4/commonly available socket, it looks tacky as hell to remove the adapter and have a 6000k HID light next to a 4000K PIAA (for example). On the other hand, I think that HID sockets might vary from one manufacturer to the other, so I think that a McCullough won't fit a Phillips, but that's just a wild guess since I don't even know what an HID bulb looks like (but from what I hear it's not like any other bulb).
