blue turn signals?

I have seen a car somewhere on this site with clear headlights but they have a blue spot over the turn signals i was wondering if that was legal and if it is where the heck can i get some?

thanks,
chris

no, blue souldn't be legal anywhere, i was pulled over for having blue blinkers that IMO blinked ice white. At night mine dont look blue at all, but during hte hazy overcast days, they look more blue i guess. BTW, the cop didn't give me a ticket because he was nice, but he said the next time he saw me he would give me a ticket. Im waiting till the 7443 serier comes out in the LEDs so i can get some of those in white

in most jurisdictions blue or red to the front will be illegal. just get a hyperwhite bulb.

I have blue turn signals. I got them at the nopi nats for 5 bucks. Stuff is cheap there. I thought they were hiper white with a blue tint but they wound up being bright blue. I've had them since september and havent gotten pulled yet. But i think it looks cool to flash blue for only 5 dollars, i'll take em out if i ever get pulled.

What kind of lights are those? And how did you get the turn signals not to come on until they blink?

I want them

what i did was steal the blue leds from a friend and put them in the parking light slot
then i cut the red wire (dont quote me) that leads to the blinkers
they are the polargg hyper white blinkers that only blink when turned on
some time i wish that i didnt do it
but then i would of had three different colors and two is just perfect
i love it
i just wonder what it looks like when im driving

So the red wire is like constant power wire that keeps the blinker on? If you cut that and cap it off, when you use your turn signal it will turn on. Am I understanding this correctly?


How did you install the LED? did it just plug in? does it have a number?

there are three wires that connect to the turn signal
red black and green
dont cut the one in the middle, i think i cut the black one and made sure that there was no connection


the parking light is i wanna say a 7440, the same bulb size as the stock one just a blue led

Where do they sell led's like that? Pep Boys?

So now its the black wire? Did I have the theory right about the power wire keeping the turn signal on?

Sorry, I'm electrically challenge.

does is look like this?

If you get one of those ice pick circuit testers it will light up when you stick the point in a wire with power on it. Then you can figure out which wire is hot when your lights are on and not blinking. They only cost about $5.

thanks,
chris
