White is not illegal. SUPER YELLOW is.

you could not call them 'jdm tyte' but ya, I've seen cars with the inside lamps yellow but never the whole headlight, I think as long as its reasonable and still gives off enough light to see it shouldn't be a problem..

god dammit nevermind.....
Blue and yellow headlights. Headlights must be white - blue and yellow are illegal (24011 VC). Look for the DOT symbol on the bulb and package.

color temperature in Kelvins

a certain and specific range in the lower part of the spectrum actually promotes visibility...just like the orange "high visibility" sunglasses or orange motorcyle helmet face shields...

yellow lights i.e. foglights (amber lighting breaks up the light reflection on the fog making it easier to see, so does wearing sunglasses in the day time when its foggy, you WILL actually see better) is ok. BUT yellow headlights are not.

Predictably, did not pass VA safety inspection. These were with that expensive ass film, so the light at night was only slightly tinted yellow, was actually kinda nice, it wasn't YELLOW like only bulbs would be.

I was running Polarg yellow H1s. Looked koo but couldnt see shiet distance wise. Worked like a champ when it rained and when its foggy tho. White light have a tendency to get "sucked" up by wet asphalt. Right now im running 3000K bulbs on my HIDs so they look like yellow ish but not as yellow as the regular Polargs.

i have yellow bulbs inside my car as fog light! When it is foggy or the weather condtion is crappy I use those, or else I just use my normal headlight!
