Talking POLARGS Installed In Clear Sidemarker! (Pics)

I didn't like the orange illumination of the Chromed Stealth Bulbs at night, at thought it basically looked like i still had an orange sidemarker, so I popped out the chromed bulb and put in a xenon looking polarg bulb in each side...

you can see the blue glass of the bulb a little through the marker when it is turned off (polargs shine completely white (no blue light at all) during night), but i actually like it and it looks kinda cool

looks better to have an all xenon looking front instead of ugly orange illumination at the sides







turned off you can see a tiny blue spec in the housing

Haha. I have it on my eyelids and I'm gonna install them on my rear license plate tomorrow.

Wow! I'm using diamond vision as well.. Only thing is that I'm using them as my low beam. Don't have the xenon lighting and I'm planning to fit in aftermarket HIDs.
