You could go for a 5000-6000k bulb, but Mr. Plod or VOSA might take exception.

This subject has been covered exhaustively in recent threads. Suffice to say that in order to get the look you desire the glass needs to filter out a lot of the yellow colours which form a major part of the light output. You will get a poorer light - fewer Lumens - and at a wavelength to which your eyes are less sensitive. If you're prepared to sacrifice the extra visibility for the sake of a preferred "look" that's your choice of course.

All good points. The reason I didn't bring them up is that I am sure that the OP has extensively read the pros and cons of high temp bulbs and just wanted some for his show-only car. :wink:
