Winter is coming which means lots of rain and fog in Victoria so I'm thinking of amber bulbs. Anyone know what kind of bulb is in our high beams. I'm too lazy to look in the manual.

Thanks.

I replaced my High beams a long time ago... here's the thread

https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-tsx-2009-2014-143/just-replaced-my-high-beams-drl-718212/

 

hb3, i got nokya yellow bulbs on ebay for 20 shipped. highly recommend for rain.

 

Thanks for the help guys.

 

Lou, did you end up doing this?

I just ordered a set of yellow 9005 bulbs for my DRL's. I'm not a fan of yellow fog lamps though, for those I already put in hyper white bulbs to match the headlights. But I hope the yellow DRL's look good since they're on by themselves.

 

Haven't done it yet. I will be picking up my bulbs in Vancouver in the next week or so. May get the Takeda CAI as well since CTE is taking forever to get the ice box out.

 

I hear ya. I'm just going to bite my lip though and hold out for the ice box.

I'll take some picks of the DRL's for you when I get the bulbs.

 

just wanted to show you guys how they look on my car.

 

Do you have a pic straight on without the parking lights on? The parking lights being on is distracting.

 

no i dont, sry. ill try to take one if i get around to it tho.

 

is the DRL the same bulb as the high beam? or are they two different bulbs?

 

same bulb. size is HB3.

 

9005 right? so that means that the DRL is the high beam bulb on just at a very low setting?

 

yeap 9005/hb3 same thing.

 

i just orderd red DRL...i guess now ill have red high beams too!

 

whoaa, DEF. post some of those pics up!

 

i will, hopefully ill have a new dig cam soon too!

 

I don't know about where y'all live, but here, if you run blue or red bulbs in anything (other than tail lights, duh) you'll get pulled over in a second.

(I call that hanging doughnuuts, you know, like from your rear bumper...COP bait.) =)

 

Same rules apply here in NC, and it was the same in WI when I lived there.

 

your not allow to have blue drl's? or it jsut depends on the state?

 

i dont think they will say anything here in md. as long as its not something that distracts the eye like flashing lights.

also i play the attorney card, so i can get off
