I think that's the perfect colour Alex! Super bright white with the tiniest tint of blue.

:D Thanks Aaron! it's not as blue as most people think, and definitely not as blue as some cars ive seen out there. It's a nice colour I think... probably why I've had no trouble with the law

I tried both Blue Vision and Crystal Vision and prefer the latter. Blue Vision is in fact a misnomer since it is only a brighter version of the stock halogens, only less yellow than OEM with absolutely no hint of blue. But it is ADR approved and still a worthwhile upgrade. Crystal Vision has just the right amount of white for me, and it still lights up the road quite nicely. It keeps me more awake during night driving than stock for some reason.

I have had Diamond vision for ages now ( haven't had to change the bulbs once ) and I still love them, I live on the out skirts of town where there is no light posts or anything and I find they light up what they're meant to, They do not cover as much of other lights but personally i like the color they project and it still covers a fair bit of distance , Just my opinion.

hey guys i am trying to buy Philips Crystal Vision 4300k since it is the legal limit (right?) is the diamond one (5000k) illegal?

anyway i saw all this h4 h3 h11, what is the difference?i am guessing it is some sort of specs or maybe voltage compatibility. Which is for our lancers?

if someone could give me a link for the right light bulb that'd be great!

4300k they say is legal. and 5000k isnt. its because theres a bit of blue in it lol

Like ihave HID's and they are 6000k, had them for 2 years past cops and knock on wood nothing so far..

The h4 and stuff is actaully the different plugs that each car takes.

For our cars its HB4.

Hope this helps.

legal limit in SA and I think it would be the same every where else is 4200kw , hense why the narva intense is legal but the crystal visions are not because they are 4300 kw , but its too hard for police to tell the difference

4300kW those are some powerful lights lol.

I wasn't aware that anything over 4200 Kelvin was illegal, that's a bit stupid, is it to do with the fact that they emit less light? or too much? or simply the colour, which, looks white at 5000.
