2001 Acura TL Headlights
Wuzzup,
My wife drives around a 2001 Acura TL. I noticed that her HID lights aren't as bright as they used to be. When I bought the car (used) 2 years ago, I do remember them being "blue-HID". But now, they seem to be amber. Anyone else have the same problem?

Re: 2001 Acura TL Headlights (Importn2oRacer)
it is not normal for them to turn yellow......
they will turn purple after years and years of use. I have a 02 CL and they are as white as can be. I leave my lights on during winter since the car turns them automatically when it shuts off
each light has it's own ballast and you need to do some troubleshooting to figure out what the problem is
are your headlight lenses turning yellow?
are you getting the correct voltage into the ballast?
are you getting the correct voltage out of the ballast?
replacement bulbs are like $120 to $200 a peice Ballast are $900+ each
