DIY Silvervision bulbs

 

Umm... I wonder how you come up with a bright idea like this :) Let's all paint our bulbs to make them look different! I've got some red HT paint I used to paint my calipers, maybe I should paint my headlight bulbs to make my headlights red! :P

And for the HID look :P

 

 

 

 

 

Makes me wonder what the legalities of coloured lights are, some can be seriously annoying when driving..

 

Especially when they are behind you blinding you..

Heh, with both of these "mods" I recon your lights would be dimmer than usual anyway, so no chance of blinding anyone else :P

if you wanted to try it go buy some gels from any stage lighting supplier :P should dim the lights alot less...

Not to mention probably shortening the life of your bulbs due to extra heat retained...

I think the ones medicine man is talking about is like the focused beam ones from BMWs and the like...they suck...really blind you when they hit a bump and the beams flash up....

 

The proper HID lights I really like, nice soft light behind you....

Don't the BMW's etc HAVE proper HID lights? I thought they did.

lol yes they do I meant compared to the normal yikky yellow bulbs....

Ah right :) Like mine you mean :P

I bought those superblue globes from SuperCheap and the difference is amazing.

 

I should have taken a shot with just one side changed - the colour difference is evident in the photo below tho .... the headlights now actually look white and look how bad it makes the parkers look - almost brown !!

the century has those bright white/blue bulbs. now, i've always hated them, but thats from them blinding me, but i have to admit having them on MY car they're alot better than the old yellow ones

Some wanker in a GTiR had GREEN! lights behind me last night...they were the single most annoying headlights ever....
