Hello,

Does anyone know what is led headlights colour tone (is this the right word to use in this occasion?)? Is it 6000k or 4500k? I haven't found the answer anywhere. I'm thinking of getting led light bar and I want it to be matching to driving light tone.

   Before I read the text of your post I was thinking 6000k, looking at the chart I suspect it will be. I had access to colour temp reading equipment at one time but not since retirement otherwise I might have been able to help more.

Having checked here  https://betterautomotivelighting.com/2018/04/22/led-headlight-bulb-color-of-6000k-is-most-popular/  looks like others may not be available

It seems that leds are 6000k because they are a little more blueish than natural white. Thanks for the link it helped me understand leds more.

It’s not 6000k as it is too blue, I have led fog lights and the are bluer.

i would think nearer to 500k 5500k
