Default Yellow LED's????

Does anyone know where I can find actual PRE-WIRED YELLOW LED's??? Most of the ones that say they are Yellow end up being Amber or Orangeish. Any clues out there???

No, I was told by them that the technology is not available for single yellow LED's to be made, which I know cannot be true. If it is possible for a complete underbody kit to be made in yellow LED's then I am sure someone can make them in single LED's

You might actually be better off with cathodes.

OK, if the people at oznium said they do not have them why would I check their site???

I guess the better question should be did anyone buy yellow pre-wired LED's and if so where did you get them from???

Once again Oznium DOES sell pre-wired yellow LEDs. That is why everyone keeps saying go to Oznium's site. Here is the direct link for you. Notice "yellow" under the color options on the right hand side.

OK, i know this, but if you all can READ I e-mailed them directly, and THEIR answer to me was NOT to buy their yellow LED's cause THEY say they are NO WHERE CLOSE to the yellow of the cold cathodes. How many times to I have to say that. For all you stupid people here is the link to the "yellow" super flux LED's I bought from them...(click on the 3rd picture to see their color chart)

http://www.oznium.com/prewired-superflux/photos

and here is what they claimed yellow is when i installed it in my car...



Now for all you people who are saying go Oznium, I get it. But when the workers there are telling me to go elsewhere, then I figured I would look for some help here. That is why I was asking if anyone had bought some yellow ones elsewhere that might be more yellow then the amber color you see in the pic. We all love most of the products from Oznium, but sometimes you do have to go elsewhere. I had hoped that someone else had used yellow and got them from a trusted source that I could goto.

My underbody kit makes a yellow. Like a real yellow.
It's Plasmaglow, and I really don't like it that much.
Point is though, ask oznium if there are 2 LEDs that would make the yellow you desire.
Red, blue, and green are the colors that make up every multicolor UB kit, so a combination of those should make your desired color.

Thanks. Actually I am in contact with them to see if there is a way to have something custom made cause i guess the yellow of the cold cathodes is really hard to make in LED's for some reason. They are going to try and put a cold cathode beside a few items that they are going to try to work out for me and then send the pic to me to see if there is something that I like.

i got the same answer from Oznium.com too. they cant do a pure yellow LED. Also on the underbodies the yellow LED is produced from more than one LED i believe. you have to combine colors to make it yellow. I had a 7 color led undercar kit and the yellow was made from 3 leds by mixing the colors, i dont remember what colors though. I have looked and looked for pure yellow leds but noone has made them. it will turn out amber/orange. thats why i went with green LEDs instead...
