Lighting questions

Ok, so I'm looking to change my front turn signals, drl's, fog lights, cornering lights, reverse lights, and headlights to blue bulbs. I need to know the size of these.

I know my headlights are the HID D2S. The fog lights are H3. But I do not know the turn signal, reverse light, cornering lights, or DRL's. Can anyone help? Thanks! And correct me if I'm wrong on any of these!

you can't change the turn signals, DRLs, headlights, reverse lights OR cornering to blue - that's illegal in all 50 states.

Actually, the only one that's illegal isbthebturn signal. I don't see where you get that headlights and reverse lights are illegal. Considering my car is factory with blue headlights. And some cars have blue led reverse lights.

No car is factory with blue headlights.

Your eyes may think it's blue but it's cool white. Blue lights on the front or rear of any non police or otherwise authorized emergency vehicle are illegal nationwide

Cops around here never say anything. Only time they say something is if it's strobe lights.

Good luck with any blue lights, steady or strobe, in Alabama. I've written tickets for blue headlights before.

Drove past 4 cops already. Nothing so far. But they blue failed. It said blue but it looks yellow. Guess that what I get when I go cheap. But I have the red.

WOW.... Blue, Red, and Green are illegal colors to have affixed on any non emergency vehicle. Even inside the cabin they are illegal. That is why if you go to a store and not online and see all the pretty blue lights they sell for cars, they all have the disclaimer "For off road use only". Just because you got away with it once or twice does not mean it won't happen. I went 4 years without a front license plate and got two tickets within a month from the same sneaky cop. If I remember correctly you can get charged with impersonating a police officer as well with your car impounded. Not really worth it if you ask me.

I'm not trying to be "sneaky". I've said it before, cops in my town do not care. I had stones and red underbodies on my avalanche and I never got pulled over. It's not like I'm driving past cops and shutting them off either. I keep them going. If I get caught, I justbwont turn them on. That simple.

Any blue or red lights on the front of your car is illegal, even just marker lights. Check with any law enforcement agency. I know, cuz I've gotten a ticket for being stupid.
