Wink Blue headlights

Sup all,

I've been on the hunt for blue headlights for some time now. Not the off-white ones you see all the time, mind you. But ones that are quite blue. Does anyone have a source/brand?


Right on. Hope everyone's been having a good Winter.

Why? You may think they look 'cool' but the output and usefulness of the lights is significantly reduced but it's your car.

Oddly enough, scrolling down the page would lead you to a section called 'Related Topics' with lots of input on blue headlights ranging from how crappy they would to possible issues with law enforcement.

Your reply was of little use, and has been disregarded.

Have a nice day.

Because why would you ever make any effort and search or scroll down to see what I found to be four posts about blue lights, some of them even having vendors who may still sell them.

You're the one asking the question not me, so it seems you can figure it all out on your own. Good luck.

@Syn19 and MileHightC Hi, To have blue light on front lights is cool. Also, if you will install try those for the fog lights. 9006 Fog Light LED Coversion Replacement Bulb Kit White 6000K 97500LM 650W. I install on my Scion xB 2004.
In the dark night time (in the middle of the Farm /Corn field, with those lights I can find easy the country road. Also those have a small electric fan cooler will protect for over-heating in the summer. The life expectancy is about 10 years!
And the best part is the price $8.54, ship next day from US.
From the time I install those I am now feel more safe and secure driving in the night time, in basement parking lots, or any dark places. I do not want to go back to the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) of Toyota /Scion.



I was not sure at first about those lights. Then after driving in night time on highway and country roads, I was happy with my decision.
How do you know that this new item is bad for you? You must try first!!!

If you want blue lights, fine have blue lights. But be aware that you're creating dangerous situation where you're not going to be able to see as well as light that your eyes are most sensitive to. That's light with matching spectrum as Sun.

A lot of it has to do with quality of light-housings. tC's are decent for OEM. Many decades ago, I made some upgrades for Porsche that upgraded lights first. Bulbs are only as good as headlights that direct output optimally.
DOT has most archaic and primitive regulations when it comes to headlights.

Careful, if you tell the OP something he doesn't want to hear he's going to ignore you and take his toys and go home.

To the OP, now that any number of people have told you that your horrible blue lights are going to be less effective and provide all kinds of glare to oncoming drivers, which you obviously could care less about, I'll help you out since your 'Google-fu' skills are either sorely lacking or you just want everyone else to do the work for you:

I Want Horrible Blue Headlights and Can't Find Them Anywhere

Took a whopping 15 seconds to do that...you're welcome.

MileHigh,

For someone who doesn't care much for my post or blue lights, you sure make your way back to this thread a lot. But again, your input is unimportant.

Kindly see yourself out.


Regards.

My "input is unimportant" is funny coming from someone who has, admittedly, "been on the hunt for blue headlights for some time now." I'm guessing you pounced on those like a starving man on a steak and what you seemed to miss was the irony in it having taken me 15 seconds to do what you couldn't manage after "some time." I can't say I'm surprised that was lost on you.

Based upon the stellar abilities you've demonstrated so far, I look forward to the 'I Got My Cool Blue Lights But Can't Figure Out How to Get Them Installed' post when you're still wrestling with them six months from now.

I'll still be here. Until then, you take care, my friend.

Just here to say I totally agree with you on this and also want to be ridiculed by the OP for telling him not to do ricer sh*t to his car.

Hey OP, don't put blue lights.
-Everyone.

Also FWIW it's hard to be believe both this Syn19 dude and Birsan aren't trolls lol.

Since it would take some measure of effort for him to ridicule you, which we both know is a stretch, would you like me to go ahead and do it for him?

Syn...making friends fast I see.
