Just installed the Radio Flyer switchbacks and being that they are brighter/whiter than the low beams, did those who installed these change your low beams to a 5000k or 6000k color bulb? If so, where did you purchase? Thanks!
I put Radio's harness and lights in my C6 and did not see a difference at all between the colors , maybe someone replaced your lights ? (Or mine for that matter )

I've got the factory HID bulbs which I believe are 4300k (slight yellow tinge) and the Radio Flyer LED bulbs appear to be maybe 5000k temp color, so not too noticable but enough to where I can see the difference. Not as bad as my '16 Outlander that came with LED DRLs & Fogs, but crappy yellow halogen low beams
Jeff. At night they really look the same. Besides you are in the car and not coming from the other direction. Be sure and PM me when you get your interior LED's. Mike.
Yes, I went with 6000k low beam leds to complete the look. I will also be doing the high beams as now they look yellow compared to the led low beams. Bought my leds from JW Motorsports a vendor on the CF. Very

Reason: Where I bought leds
I also installed these halogen high beams as they are close in color , and i didn't want to not be able to reuse the rubber cover if i went led.... too much crap can get into the headlight without the cover in my opinion
The factory C6 headlight is a 35w D1S HID 4300K bulb. Most cars have seen enough use that these bulbs are starting to see the end of their useful life (staring to dim) Our plug-and-play/bolt-on kit replaces these with a 55w D2S bulb and matched 55w HID ballast. This increases brightness by 25-30% depending on color selected.
For the high beams, our high-output LED bulb is a fantastic complement to the HID low beam and easy to install especially if you're already in the area with the low beams:
