well tried taking em out and all that came out was the plug I can see they want to come out but dont. how do you get them out? i want to replace with xenon bulbs i bought.

There are about 3 threads that describe how to remove the bulb. Please search.

sorry i was in a frenzy

figured it all out. those little clips are annoying to get off. These bulbs say "color temp 4000K ultra white Xenon gas simulated HID.

will these be too hot for our car?

No, the K has nothing to do with the temperature. It's the bulb color.

And he probably wasted his money too.

To the OP, read this and browse around the site. A little automotive lighting 101.http://www.danielsternlighting....html

Actually, temperature is EXACTLY what "K" means. 4000K means 4000 degrees Kelvin. Different temperatures produce different bandwidths of light, which is what determines a lamp's color.

Technically, you're both in the same ballpark. In context of light bulbs (HID capsules specifically) the Kelvin rating describes light "temperature" or "hue". In this case "temperature" is not in the same sense as "today's high is 74 degrees with low of 60". It is a indicator of color in the visible spectrum of light. Brightness, on the other hand, is measured by Lumens.
