try LED's.. you can get the ice blue LED's or just plain dark blue.. or pure white, with a tint of blue. the only problems with LED's are the way it blinks. i hate how they blink super fast, since its not suited for our cars.. you need to get some adapter or something to make it blink at normal rate. but the color and brightness on them LED's are NICE

personally I think it will look terriable...dont "rice" out a TL. That looks worse than someone ricing out a Civic. Anyway, I saw an Integra today with "white" headlights and the blue side lights...I laughed, but you are 19 and I might have thought that was cool 3 years ago also - so by all means, do whatever you want to your car, I just think you have the wrong car to do that too

yea im trying real hard not to.. but like you said and which i am... 19... what would you prefer? Opposed to being in the daytime where you dont want your headlights having that amber bulb in, in which the reason of clearing my headlights. Maybe there is a way that i can juss have my headlights on without those 2 other lights? And use them only for signaling?

oh I see, so you cleared your headlights and now you have that stupid looking amber bulb chillin wide open...I understand now, and yes I hate those "white xenon" lights that are just coated in blue - even more ghetto. Ya LED's would be ideal, if you could get them to blink at the same rate. maybe this site will have something you could use...http://www.autolumination.com/

the LED's could be fixed.. but its another 7 dollars to get, and installing shouldnt be too bad. but yeah, if youre really desperate to get rid of ugly yellows and want some REAL white/blue.. LED's with the load equalizers are the way to go. www.autolumination.com/equalizers.htm - this is the link to the load equalizers to slow down the blinking rate of the LED's. so its not a bad price to get a pair of LED's with the equalizers. im actually really considering this whenever i get my 6000K lowbeams.

Hey,

I live on long island, and went to some local hardware shop and picked up a pair of 1157 bulbs that are blue for 99cents.

During the day the look purple, (when their off)

At night they look blue but its a very non-bright blue and you almost cant see them contrasted to the HID's..

Overall they suck.

but if you want them - they were made by Wolo and are 99 cents..
