    Who said white LEDs match 6000K HIDs?

    They don't. Looks closer to 8000K. Only because the brightness is so intense and sharp, they "look" whiter in person.

    i think the only way they'd match is if u got like the S6 LED ones that actually say 6000k! but regardless i like that!

    Yeah, the S6 LED strip looks different from regular white LEDs.

    None because I used a resistor, but without it, most likely there would be.

    They do, my 6000K headlights are identical to my LED city lights. I'll get a pic later when my camera batter charges

    I'm pretty sure I was the one who said they match.

    The LEDs I run match with the 6000k HID fogs I used to have

    That's a white balance and flare issue. Flares will always be pretty much white.

    Well I had the LEDs with 5000k, 6000k, and 8000k HID bulbs so I don't know what I must have been seeing then.
