JDM Yellow High Beams at last! - Page 2

Orient Express · 03-08-2007, 10:02 AM

You might want to check your State vehicle code just to make sure that lighting other than white is allowed. In California, yellow bulbs for primary lighting (but not fog lamps) is illegal, and a great way to be pulled over and cited.

In general, yellow bulbs are great for fog lamps, but not so great for general lighting.

It is the high beam that is yellow and when drive during the day and the DTRL is on you barely notice but changing it to HID it will be noticable but to each is own please do not take offense i doesn't matter to me....

You didn't answer the question. I know some states have problems with yellow lights, but the brightness doesn't have anything to do with getting pulled over. Yellow lights are yellow lights.

Being brighter atracts more attention plus why would you want HID's in your highs or yellow HID's for head lights?

Dude, you have no idea what you are talking about. I never said to put yellow HIDs anywhere. I just said he should have got the krypton series, brighter and more light output.

How do they compare to factory when driving?

Liu · 03-19-2007, 04:59 PM

They're bigger, fatter, and brighter than OEM lights when you have your brights on. I haven't tested yet, but since they're yellow, they should slice through fog better than OEM lights as well.

I take it the xenon are the 9005XS and the normal are just straight up 9005?
