Default Yellow JDM Headlights or Stock OEM ?

Im debating over which headlights to get.
My stock ones have gone bad ... So What do you guys think?
I wish i had the money to buy HIDs but ... 300$ is way over my budget.
O yea n are the yellow lights even legal in the states?
If any one got Pics of yellow jdm headlights .. that would be great!

Well you said headlights not bulbs there's a difference. Yellow light is meant to cut through fog (hence most fog lights being yellow) white is meant for seeing. But no there not illegal.

luminics are pointless......they look just like crappy oem replacements.

if you want real yellow ones, get polarg yellows.

stock -- you will see better. Yellow is mainly used for in "fog lights" because it gives you great visiblity in the fog Yellow &gt; White.

For everyday driving I would go OEM (white) see better!

wait do yellow lights help you see better or something or are you just going for looks? "Oh look that guy needs to change his headlights cause they appear to be yellow."
