habitforming Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I just replaced the headlights with a 6000K HID system. HID's look absolutely amazing, but now all of my other bulbs look yellow. Has anyone found good parking light, fog light, turn signal, and high beam bulbs to match (reasonably well) the color of HID headlights?

JDOwen2 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I used Sylvania Silverstars. I like em'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 You can;t get anything to match them as they are not like a bulb . Which is why it is better to keep the amber or orange bulbs to give it a nice contrast instead of tehm looking dim or yellow in comparison as they are.

jzz30 Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 change them all to hid heres something that i came up with recently. hid reverse lights, and possibly brake lights but the reverse lights could help becasue its hard to see at night ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habitforming Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 I realize that nothing will match perfectly, but what I am most concerned about is the parking lights, as they run 100% of the time on my car. Fogs and Hi beams I can obviously leave off, and I shouldn't have said turn signals earlier as they are behind amber lenses anyway and are staying as such. But as far as the parking lights, which are 1157 type, is there an LED replacement or something that will look reasonably good in contrast? What is in it now looks like dog !Removed!.
