zargon Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 Hi guys Great site. Anyone have any Ideas how I can add blue headlights to my 94cutty. conversion kits , Lamps anything? Quote
stockgp Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 um...any parts store sells blue headlights. you need 9005 and 9006 bulbs Quote
zargon Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Posted September 13, 2005 Nah I have an CuttySL it uses the 4351/4352 sealed beams.. I wish I could use 9005/9006. Quote
stockgp Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 oh gotcha. well you can take apart your sealed beams, and put blue bulbs in their place. it has been done many times. you can even silicone them in if you want, but from what i understand it's not necessary Quote
runt Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 I know someone has a write up either on here, or another site on how to remove the bulbs from the sealed beams and replace them with something else. Might want to try searching or maybe even someone knows the address off of the top of their head. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 You can put 9005/9006 in place of the sealed beams. I put real HID in mine, I have a photo-documentary on my Cardomain page. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/711554/2 If you just want to use colored halogens, then all you'll really want to see is the last pic at the bottom of the page.

Hell of a Set up!!! I thought about trying to convert the lenses and use the 9005/6... now I will!! Off to the local U-wrench-it yard... Thanks!! Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 What are you getting at the U-wrench-it yard? You can pop the bulbs out of your existing sealed beams. The connectors are the same so you shouldn't need anything at all. Quote

GnatGoSplat Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 There was a guy named Steve on ClubGP that bought those a few years ago and said they weren't worth the money and his even cracked. Quote
5speedz34 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Comon Shawn no pics of how it looks? Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Looks blue, hahah! Not really any brighter than stock, I think they're too blue which reduces brightness (6000K). I've been wanting to swap them out for some less blue ones (5000K) but haven't gotten around to it. Quote

It was silver with the glass top with HID's ohh man did it look hawt. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Factory HIDs are 4300K which is closer to white, but you can get aftermarket real HIDs in different colors like 5000K, 5500K (more bluish), 6000K (blue), and 8000K (purple). Quote
