I was wondering if there was a bad side to the Ion Blue Tint on the Black housing headlight for the 99 civic ?

 

had some on my 96 ex. only problem was that i had to get amber bulbs for the corner/parking lights to pass inspection cuz my stock bulbs were white and there wasn't an amber cover in the housing.

 

I've seen these headlights before, but have never seen a set turned on. What exactly does the covering do to the light output?

 

we did the "diy" black housing on my buddys 99 si, and we couldnt tell a difference as far as light output at night. they still looked just as bright

 

Yeah i kno wut u guys mean, but i meant like, how the tint on the lens would affect the lighting, i heard it changes the light color to green or some shitt, that ain't c0o

 

it just makes the light output a little yellow, and a little less bright. main reason why i ditched mine.

 

i had the K2 HID kit on my civic with blue ion/black housing headlights... the output was greenish and very scattered, i put my OE headlights back on and there wasn't as much scatter and the out put was more white.

 

They look really bad in the day and nite. lights are yellow at night.
