blinkers that are actually WHITE?? - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

pwrdbykmfdm · 04-20-2003, 08:00 AM

sup,
i havea 99 civic w/ clear corners. i used to have darkblue/purple bulbs for my blinkers but i got pulled over and well its kinda "rice", anyway.
i bought some xenon gas bulbs from hibrid that are susposed to be white but even at night they look like dirty water. they are the light blue colored bulb.
well has anybody had any experience with platinum white bulbs? or what about the bulbs that look chrome?
my headlights are the g4 bulbs[acura look-a-likes] and they are actually white, so i need some blinkers to match.
anybody have any ideas?
thanks much.

i saw some polarg bulbs at the race shop i went to and they had a chrom coloured bulb.
do you know for a fact that these will not look yellowish at all?? because my headlight is a beutiful white/pink-purpleish and i need some corner lights that will not be yello whatsoever.

Just a question to the original poster, how can you have ricey headlight bulbs? This rice thing is going way overboard. I would love to find a headlight bulb that puts out a whiteish light with a bluish tint in the headlight.

yeah those chrome bulbs are madd expensive though...like 40 bucks for a typical pair of signal bulbs

but they do light up quite well with no discoloration.

try Polarg for superwhite...haven't tried them but it may match

yea I jus got them cheap APC "Superwhite" 194 bulbs a few days ago, they were like a blue-white color, but not the Superwhite I was expecting. But dont get me wrong, I love the color but they dont match my silverstars I have in my headlight, which are all white.

the LEDs will give u the purest white. All the incadencent bulbs have imperfections in the light output. so If u want to get the whittest light possible, u'll have to go for LED
