I used to have 9005’s (high beam bulbs) retrofitted into my low beams, the HIDs aren’t really any brighter. I like the yellow light, where I go to school its rainy and/or foggy all the time, and the yellow light kicks ass for that.
Anyways, I’ve had them for like two years, and I’ve been pulled over once for them (in colonie during the summer). The CPD officer told me they were illegal, but he also told me my factory exhaust was illegal, so take that as you will.
