there is one seller who is selling bulbs that claim to be purple but they are not. if you are considering to purchase these bulbs with the intention of being different like i did you will be angry after purchasing these bulbs and installing them. The auction claims that these are new generation bulbs with a new coating to produce a purple tint, but it is all a lie in my experience. Don't spend $30+ on these bulbs, buy the other hiper bulbs being sold on ebay for $15 or even $10. The bulbs are in no way inferior but the claim on the auction is misleading and you will spend money that you don't need to spend. jus wanted you guys to know if you were thinkin of buying these bulbs.

I had purple bulbs once they were

neon blue so calledly, but they basically were purple with blue out line and the beam was even purple. I paid 45 dollars fortem then by harness melted and that was 45 dollars shot down the drain.

Good looking out Gotrice. I got some bulbs for my cornering lamps (next to headlights) thinking that they were blue.. ad said they were blue. Called Opti Blue...receipt said that they were blue. Stayed SUPER BLUE for about a week...now they're purple... or purplish....

I e-mailed the e-bay seller,who's sellers name is DCW903@aol.com, and he gave me what i expected to hear "unless it is a quality problem, there's nothing we can do," i'm guessin they won't even stand behind a product they sold. If you come accross this seller on e-bay, be wary, i mean i think he has a decent rating but i don't think he is a real reliable seller if he is not standing behind his product. So if at all stay away from this seller, he is just trying to make a buck off us max guys and personally i'd rather you spend your money elsewhere(cuz i think you can find other places to spend your money).
