Purpose: 6000k bulbs are traditionally used in headlight applications but can be used as auxiliary lights in foglight applications. The 6k color
Special note: All color temperatures emit the same number of lumens but remember, the higher the color temperature, the darker the color produced. This progressive darkening of the light with higher color temperatures results in fewer visible lumens on a dark surface. A 6000k bulb will emit roughly 12% less visible light than a 4300k bulb.
