Yeah colonie cops pull anything over that has any mods at all and they all give the same lame ass excuse!! Loud exhaust. I always drive around it’s worth the extra gallon of gas to avoid the bullshit I’ll get over there.
I had yellow HID D2R bulbs in my Maxima, ran them for a year. Never pulled over. I got tired of it and went back to OEM 4300k
I installed them last night but i think im going to put the stock bulbs back in.
:rofl +repppp
dude yellow lights suck so bad, seriously , by all means go with it but I drive down twisty backroads in the woods and shit and with yellow lights forget ittttttt
if you’re a city boy i guess its fine
The best light is 4300k. That is our suns natural color and thus offers the most usability (most lumens). The further you get from it (up or down) the worse your light output will be. That’s why I, and many people who understand HID’s, never recommend going over 6000k or below 3000k.
I personally have 3000k fog lights and 6000k (55w - makes it look like 5000k) low beams on my M (and had the same setup on my Maxima). My high-beams are your basic Sylvania Xtravision halogen bulbs. In both cars, the fog lights were USELESS. In a good rain or in the city with all the water reflecting, can’t see CRAP for lines, etc.
As for if they are illegal…well…I believe as long as they aren’t RED (law enforcement) or a particular color of blue, they aren’t technically illegal however if they are too blue or purple or green, cops could technically harass you about them and give you tickets like Benny got (for being ‘inadequate’). The only law is that it can’t be a color that is used on LEO vehicles (mainly red).
im gonna put bright ass white lights in my fogs soon, and stupid ass bright ass lights for my highs
/pjb
not me man, my high and low beams are stock and i dont have factory fogs. I do have 6.5" driving lights in the grille though.
lol nvm
sketchy, i had yellow driving lights. Low beam/high beam (same bulb in mk3’s as you know). Anyhow yes they are illegal, i have 4 tickets to proove it. Foglights are NOT and you can run any yellow you want. Driving lamps however, not so much. Mine were 3k i believe? As yellow as they get.
To answer your question: it is perfectly legal to carry, possess, and consume yellow light bulbs in NYS.
haha
Mine aren’t nearly as yellow as the ones drunkie the bear posted, so maybe that’s why I really don’t get bothered for them. They look like more of a yellow tinted white than the straight yellow. Slightly greenish for some reason.
it makes it look like you got really dirty headlights
:rofl Yellow headlights are rice, end of story.
I’m just busting BTW, I wanted to find the link to that photoshopped picture of the Accord because I remember rendering it for a similar post a while ago. Personally I could careless what you goofballs do to your cars. 
Duke! :rofl
ReD, you had a comical ‘Gearhead vs JVG joint’ post in that thread. Search Accord yellow lights or something, and you’ll find it. Plenty of PJB classics in there as well.
I sorta figured that pic would show up if I posted in this thread. Although I’ve only been pulled over once for them (in november 2010) since then, and that was mostly because the aim was fucked up (still aimed for halogen bulbs when I swapped over for inspection, and had a ton of stuff in the car I was bringing back to school). Fixed the aim, and haven’t heard about them since. I’ve got a pretty thick skin online anyways, so people calling my car rice really doesn’t bother me. I don’t make a habit of trying to make other men happy.
By the way, has anyone noticed that in the last couple months a bunch more people around the schenectady area installed yellow bulbs/yellow HIDs?
They kinda were in that picture, for some reason dust gets in, you can see it on the inside of the lens.
