No longer sure what the temp of my led bulbs was. I believe that anything 6000 or above will have a bluish hue. It's too bad that bulb manufactures don't know the difference between white and blue.
The lens on the front of you bulbs perhaps also make a big difference. I just have 3 separate LEDs on the front. Not as much projection. Also, we rarely see lumens listed on the specs of LED bulbs. We can look up the old bulb's output but then have to guess that the LEDs are better.
