    Thanks to you on those LEDs my friend.Came out nice.I think I might not use them for the turn signals though.They are great at night or low light conditions but full on daylight they are kinda hard to see.

    The main headlight has a blue glow to it and when its hit with sunlight it kinda drowns it out.I'm gonna check it out from another cars view maybe it was just my angle.We'll see.

    Yeah I see what your saying now.Where's the blue coming from? The bulb itself? Are you running HID's?

    Yeah it's from the side of the main bulb.Like a blue film around it. I dont know if this is HID. How can I tell I thought it was just an LED.

    HID's have a box that comes with them so if it was you would know fairly quickly.
