Sorry if this is a double post, found this video on youtube, i actually think its pretty creative, wonder if the colors are actually functional as opposed to just eye candy.

I think it's pretty cool to show off. Would never drive with red or green on, though.

Nope-that's not going to work.....

Obviously, the multi-colored headlights/angel eyes are illegal.

I like it. Obviously it would be illegal to drive with them on with certain colors but would be fun at shows or parking lots.

I think they're creative and kind of a original feature, did you retrofit your headlights?

Not rice at all………if it’s for show purposes only. Driving on the street with them changing colors would be gay. Funny how he's sitting there clicking the button and nothing's happening. The sequence 41 secs in would be cool for signaling / hazards.

:theghey: RICEY! Especially that floating angel eye in the foglight.

Just find a color you like and stick with it. I'd try to find something as close to white as possible, anything bluer would make your headlights looks like ebay specials.

Add some under-body Neon and a Pimp Star LED wheel kit and you'll ready for the circus.

I guess it's good when you're alarm goes off. It will scare the thieves away.

The lights will probably cause them to have a seizure.

Looks kiddish more then ricey. I like the sporty/classy look more than the toy/video game look. The red would be dangerous, easily confused with taillights.

Well I know one place that would let you drive with them on changing colors and like them....Key West! Lol. I'm not a fan of all the color swaps. If you can pick what color you want when, then that would be cool! I have the 10k CCFL's in mine but kinda wish I would have went with the LED multi's like that. So when I'm driving I can have the white ones on and when im parked i can have the red ones on.

It's for sure rice, but I have to admit it's pretty cool that you can change the colors.
A for effort, just not my cup of tea.
