Default all these blue lights are killing me!

is it me or are you annoyed with this ish?? every rice-ball in my town has these jobs goin' on. upfront appoligies if you got 'em, but honestly, why draw even more attention to your loud, fast, lowered honda? the way i remember them (2+yrs ago) is not as capable at illuminating the road in front of them. plus they look rather poor if they're not on a bmw, is300, or s2k.

just sinister's thought 4 the day.

i guess i should have been more clear, yeah the headlights. hid? thought that was an entire system. i just remember the h-3 &h-4's that were blue, assumed they were one in the same.

HID systems include the balast and a special bulb to actually provider a better and brighter light, most people i have seen arent spending the $500 for a HID kit but rather buying sets of normal (maybe a slightly higher wattage) blue tinted normal bulb, which in my opinion are actually harder to see with. Some higher end normal bulbs declare "HID like" output but you can still usually tell the difference in person between them and a real HID system (such as those in bmw, benz and other luxury cars)

Good luck seeing anything at night. I have sylvania blues on mine, and they dont even look blue, but at least I can see when I drive.

i have these in my low beams and they give a clear blue/white light which is a lot brighter than the stock yellow/white crap that was in previously, i have hyper whites in the hi beams, these bulbs are tinted blue, but give almost pure white lite, i'm waiting on a set of lo beams to do the hi beam conversion, even though the lites at the moment are fairly good, but could be better.
