lupohillman Posted September 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Do you mean yellow bulbs or yellow lense like some race cars have?Either are good but must be legal. Lens' would be nice. I have seen a few older cars with yellow lights but unsure if there bulbs or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomflyer Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 yellow lights aren't legal in this country... you will get pulled up for them in seconds hence why no one sells them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philplop Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Hmmm, I was under the impression we could have yellow lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomflyer Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 im pretty sure in the mot handbook (which ill check at work tomorrow) speculates that headlights should emit white light as indicators should emit yellow/amber i'll double checkbefore even fitting yellow bulbs if you can get any your instantly going to draw attention to your car from the fuzz anyways :S and it can't really make the road any brighter could it :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 yellow lights aren't legal in this country... you will get pulled up for them in seconds hence why no one sells themThey are fine, I've ran with them for the last 3 years and never had a single issue. Passed 4 MOTs with them in too I had a set for 3000K HIDs, and also a set of Nokya h4 yellow ones I brought back from the USA which are excellent.

RossB Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 This issue cropped up on another forum and someone piped up to say they'd been pulled for yellow headlights.Personally, I ran yellow headlight bulbs for a while in my 206 (crap bulbs from eBay), with orange side markers instead of normal sidelights, and not only that but I covered the lights in dark tint film aswell. Never got pulled once but maybe I was lucky?If anyone's interested I got the tint film from http://www.lamin-x.co.uk, they do red film (rear lights) and yellow too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
