I am looking for the most whitest (not blue) headlights i can get (without buying the complete system... just the bulbs)
So, for my 99 Solara, Gen1 its 9003/H4. Until here, im good.
Questions:
- Color Temperture? The higher the better right?
- Watts? Some are giving 60/55W and some 100/90W. Will both fit?
So, which combination should i get and stay "legal" at the same time. White, no blue!
I have my eyes on these

Stick with 60/55. Any higher can cause the harness to overheat and potentially catch fire.
Color temperature is a scale from yellow to blueish/purple.
About 2800K is yellow. up to 5300K is white 6000K has blue in it, and it gets more purple as you go up.
So for the whitest, get as close to 5300K without going over.
Do realize that Halogen is about 3200K. Getting the temperature any higher in a halogen bulb requires putting a blue film on the bulb to block the yellow from passing through. This means the further away from 3200K you get, the more
light is blocked, and the lower the acutal
light output for halogen bulbs.
