Lightbulb New light

I bought Hella XY bulbs for my headlights and fog lights, they are 1300 lumens and 2500-3000 kelvin


enjoy



BEFORE

highs


lows




AFTER

lows (not aligned)


highs (not aligned)




Notice the reflection color on the stop sign




comparison of color shift





two larger images showing the brightness once they are aligned. the sign on the right side of the road in the distance is just under 1/4 mile away.

yeah the before look really blue but they are the factory blubs. so that gives you an idea of how yellow these are. I like them so far, you really don't see the yellow unless you have a reflection or the fogs are on.

Sorry I can't stand the look of yellow headlights. I would have bought whiter bulbs.

when i took those pictures they weren't aligned properly I was on the way to the school (for a large wall) and took the picture. they were aimed way way to low. take a look at the larger images linked you will see how bright they are.
