Are you talking about making the actual light ray blue or are you talking about when the headlight is off and the bulb makes the headlight looks a bit blue?

- For normal halogen, I don't think you can get them to produce blue light. Unless, if they are really tinted blue.

- You could get blue parkers (leds) which will make your headlight looks a little bit blue when the headlight is on (ebay)

- If you get the normal halogen bulbs with the blue film over the bulb, the reflectors will make your headlight appear slightly blue when the lights is off. The film is there to make the light whiter. (Any autoshop, or ebay)

Philips Diamond Vision (5000k), most blue halogen bulb you can get to my knowledge. $145 RRP a pair, you won't be able to see anything at all with them on and the first cop that will see you will pull you up. They are mainly designed for show. Better alternative is the Philips Crystal Vision (4300K) at $99 RRP a pair but not as blue. Atleast cops won't hopefully hassel you and you will see a bit better. (They still aren't ADR approved nor do they give much light).

Problem with halogen bulbs is the higher the kelvin, the less distance and light output you get, anything over 4000K is a step backwards in distance and light output.

I had Crystal Visions for 2 years, now have HID's and i couldn't be happier.

You can get the diamond visions of ebay for about $89 PP i've had a look at the diamond vision seen them in one of my mates car couldn't warrant spending that amount on bulbs don't get me wrong they look amazing but i felt and im glad others had realised it but it didn't seem to be powerful as normal headlights as in the light died really quickly and didn't get to far on the road. Also i try to keep the po po off my back as much as possible this is just another reason for them to pull you over. If you still want them Autobarn near me sells then if theres one near you go have a look...

if you already have the HiD kit but with white bulbs then buy some 8000k bulbs from either this forum or ebay for cheaper then the price of the whole kit. (like $30 for two bulbs). but if you dont already have the HiD kit then your gna need to buy that too...ends up being about $220 in total.

waste of time,,,,, increases cop heat (gran theft auto style lol), and you cannot see in the night properly. I dont know about the expensive $99+ bulbs but the $50 and under are crap

All of the above are valid comments...however, I will add this...if you want your lights to be blue, go HID 8,000 kelvins and you will get this effect, 10,000 kelvins and it will be nearly entirely blue with a tinge of purple.

Phillips Blue Vision bulbs will give you the icey white effect but not blue as you desire.

Personally, I have 8,000 kelvin lights in my car and love them. Have not been pulled over by the cops once. Actually, 1 copper one time even said that my lights were really handy for dark roads. So there you have it. I think this topic is pretty much closed.

what i did was putting a H-Tec halogen bulb from ebay which is really good, not too blue and distance wise is fairly better than the Philip Crystal (had it in my prelude). And for the HID thing, i actually threw in a HID fog light since there are only rules for headlights and not fog light=p.
