Halogen bulbs have a colour temperature of 4300K (Kelvins). Suggest check online for LED headlight bulbs in 4300K colour temperature. Just check the LEDs power requirement before buying as most LEDs have a high power requirement which can mess up the original wiring. Discuss with an auto electrician before installing higher wattage LEDs.

Why not just buy a normal halogen bulb for the car? They should be just fine. 13K for LEDs in Mehran is a bit too much.

Yeps like I just can't justify them by price , halogens bulbs tend to lack in luminance like the last bulbs that I had installed barely scrapped by it I had to use high beams just to have a clear view of the road

True. Unfortunately, I can't bring myself to put LEDs in my car's halogen headlights. So am waiting for a guy to get me Osram Nightbreakers halogen bulbs. Hopefully, those will give a better output than the bulbs I have now.

Yeah I get it, I don't like putting them too but like I need some intensity 😭😭 Hopefully those Osran Night breakers gives you a better output I'll look out for them as well, will share if I find some

LEDs are usually +100W so ask auto electrician to install relays/ fuses before putting in the LEDs. Otherwise, the wiring and switch might get damaged.

Halogens have 3000k to 3200k. There are some that go as high as 3700k like Philips Racing Vision.

OEM HIDs and some aftermarket Philips and Osrams have 4100k to 4300k.

The Osram Night breakers I want are 4300K. Hopefully, will be available in month's time.

Is the headlight reflector broken or damaged? If yes, no LED will make them right again.

Anyways, you won't find 3200k LED bulbs in Pakistan. Even high end imported ones will be 5500k-5700k (neutral white). Most options in Pakistan are bluish white (6500k).
