    I’m about to buy VLED to replace the interiors in my 2018 1794.

    Can’t decide between 5500 and 6000…anyone have any preferences?

    The 5500 is the more white....most of us with the footwell kits have the 5500.

    Do you find the white too harsh or bright, especially at night?

    5500k definitely. Good clean white light with no hint of yellow. 6000 is slightly bluish.

    Third option is their 5k natural white. Still very bright, lights up the whole cab.

    I drive a 1794 as well. I went 5k at first and it was too bright. Felt like a spotlight.

    Switched to 5.5k and love it. Makes the interior look and feel luxurious.
