I would do 5K in both. The uniform look always is the best in my opinion. Make sure when you install them you really angle those lights down if they aren't, don't want to blind anybody. Good luck!

Going with 4300K in both from HIDWORLD...I used them when I had my RSX-S and they were very clear. I'm not a fan of the HIDs with blue tinting.

HIDworld is a good place; seen a lot of cheap solutions that get real hot or burn out ballast fast. Always interested in where people are getting them.

I wish Ford would offer HID headlights on F150s as an option. $50k for a platinum - they should at least be an option.
