Replace stock HID bulbs with different color bulb

I Have a 2013 2ss that I recently purchased and I don't like the color of the stock HID bulbs. Looking for more of a 6000K or 8000K bulb to install. Not even sure if possible without cutting the headlights apart. Help is greatly appreciated.

Search "replace headlight", you don't have to cut the housing open. Behind the headlight, in the engine bay, there is a "cap" just a quarter turn and you're in.

Don't do 8000k light out put will go down way to much trust me I have 8k on mine but I don't drive it at night very much at all, 6000k will be much better I don't remember if it's DS2 or DS1 bulbs check out the retrofit source they have really good quality stuff been using them for years bulbs last forever.
