Yellow is normally for foglights or race cars.

I personally hate yellow headlights but if you are going to ditch them because I said so, they've already won.

i have yellow high beams, but i dont use the high beams it is only for when it is sunny so the bowl is yellow

i dont use my high beams due to the hid retro, and it turns off my fogs which light up more than my high beams do

I had black housing front turn signal lights with amber chrome bulbs on my car for a while but I switched them to normal stock cause I want people to be able to see me signal and avoid accidents, which is more practical although not as stylish. I also have an HID retrofit with 4300k bulbs that are supposed to be the closest to daylight, again because of the practicality and not the styling. Other drivers are less annoyed by this color. I hate being followed by a blue tint or a hell no fugly yellow in my rear view mirrors. The lighting on your car may look good to you, but other drivers have to put up with it, and in the end, is it practical or just rice?

i would say no for yellow...


correctme if im wrong...

retrofit is when you use the right things to maximize the light output... for hid that will be with an hid projector (the reflector is more wide than the halogen projector because of the filament orientation)...
