Question about headlights and fogs
#1
I was wondering if anybody has put the PIAA Ion Crystal (yellow) fog lights in their 2k-2K1 max? How do they look? Would you suggest it? And also about the headlights... I have PIAA Super Plasma H4's right now.. but was wondering if anybody had recieved the "new" Xtreme PIAA's? Are they worth changing to? Thanks for your help guys..

I don't know about the piaa's, but has anyone been able to find the SilverVision lights from Philips? Those bulbs are for the front side blinkers, and the bulb looks silver, so it looks like you have clear corners, but when they are lit, the light is yellow-orange.

Those are 1156 or single element bulbs shown. The 2000-2001 Max uses 1157 or dual element bulbs in the FRONT corner lamps. That's how we have a blinker and running lamp from one bulb. The 1156 will work in the REAR turn signal though. Hopefully, they make the 1157 in the silver, because I have the Polarg Visual 1157 in the FRONT and you can still see the yellow color reflecting from the bulb during the daytime. The silver would be much better.

You might try www.autolamps-online.com for the Philips SilverVisions. Although they are based out of England, they accept payment in greenback and they're currently offering free shipping anywhere worldwide.

Re: Re: Hey...
According to the CA Veh Code, white turn signals in the front are legal. What can get you in trouble is if your side markers are anything other than yellow. That's the reason why when people get clears, it comes with a yellow bulb.
Just a comparison for your thoughts.

Is this only in Cali or does it affect every state? I'm not aware of any such laws in Colorado. Anyone out there know?
