Yellow high beams

[novtechere]

I have seen several cars that the high beam housing looks yellow without the lights being on. Is that just from putting the yellow HID bulbs in there? i think it looks good, how is it on lighting?

yellow halogen bulb reflection. HID bulbs have no colour when not lit.

You don't need yellow HID to get that look. Most people don't even put HID's in the highbeam. Just get a yellow 9005 halogen and put it in there. The yellow shines off the reflective housing (even when its not on) and creates the look, not to mention when you turn your highbeams on it'll be yellow.

Or you can open up your headlights and paint the highbeam reflector yellow. That'll give you a more pronounced look.

Personally if you are going to do this I suggest just getting the yellow halogen. It looks decent and completely reversible.

sounds good, will my brights still be fairly bright? or will they be a little crappy cuz the yellow light?

I have Putco Pure Jet Yellow Halogens 12v 65w for highs. Had Nokya`s, but these are better, more a "deeper yellow." They are awesome as a high beam, super bright and cuts out glare, you won`t be disappointed.

I had yellow 3000k's in my low beams for a little while. Fantastic visibility, no glare. I loved them.

As a high beam, they're even better. They're super bright and cut through everything.

Gotta remove the bumper to get those lights out right?

[reklipz]

To remove the glass/housing and mounting brackets, yeah. To remove the bulbs, no.

BREAKING NEWS: I am a complete jackass.... So how do the bulbs get out? (feel free to smack me for the bullshit question, its dark and cold outside to go look) you cant access them from the engine compartment can you? i thought you needed to remove the bumper to get to the sockets to putttt... http://www.ebay.com/itm/9005-Headlig...650#vi-content those bad boys in there..
