    Yup, crystal clear glass. No blue coatings.
    Unlike the Sylvania counterparts, which use that same bulb chemistry (with its increased lumen output), and then blue-coated (ridiculous, IMO)

      You could get whiter city lights... would make a nice touch.

          What's wrong with blue bulbs, Kris? I mean, come on, all the cool people have them now. Why not be "cool" with blue. Then maybe some blue turn signals. Hell, I'm gettin ahead of myself.

          Stupids ricers... :roll:


          Those lights look badass. I'm definately gettin some of those down the road.

                You could do the H4/H1 conversion, too. That's what I have :up: I'm planning on Euro ellips too, though.

                  The citylights look cooler in person than you think. Id just leave them yellow since they would then serve as a legal light.

                  They look really yellow when compared with HID. Most be are just confused as to what is is since its such a small light. They assume its some sort of DRL that wont turn off.

                    You cant put colored citylight bulbs in. The bulb is directly visible through the glass. there is no form of reflector or housing covering it.

                    It would color the entire chromed reflector around the ellip the color of the bulb coating. It would look horrid.

                      Heck yeah. I did the H4 conversion. My silverstars are in the mail right now! :) I still need to find some H1s to replace the sealed highs.

                          I have the sylvania silverstars, yea they are blue but they are no where as close to the blue color of some of those ebay special ricer lights. Its a light sky blue. I wish I got the osrams though :? . Can you get more yellow city lights? Something almost orange? Maybe a red and green too for the holiday season.

                          I bombed Korea every night.
