I've been looking for some blue headlight bulbs. I've been to a couple shops and buy the light bulbs they claim to be blue and they're just white-blue. Does anybody know which light bulbs are HELLA blue?! Like super blue-blue! Not white-blue...
 
You mean the illegal kind that give off almost no light? Just dip some cheap ones in paint. Works like a charm! :rolleyes:

"HELLA blue?" :confused:

Those types of bulbs are a waste of money. :toobad:

1. Very illegal and they draw the attn. of cops very quickly.
-It's going to be obvious when a cop drives by and sees two blue eyes looking back at him.

2. Produces a color of light that does nothing to light your path.
-Light with a "blue color" does very little in inclement weather. Anything mimicking the color of an HID bulb above a 3800 degress K will produce light that can get "swallowed up" in rain or snow.

"Bluish lights" that don't have sufficient power behind them (unlike HID's) don't cut through rain and other forms of precipitation very well. And even HID's have problems with this too.

Have you ever seen a car going down the road with "HELLA blue" lights (let's say 10,000 degrees K) and very VERY yellow fogs? This is because the yellow color of the light produced by the fog's bulbs can penetrate precip. and illuminate the road well.

IMO, don't try to stick those bulbs in. Save the $40 and stick it in the bank to gain some interest towards your turbocharged DSM purchase.
