Does anybody know of a DRL 9005 halogen bulb that illuminates a white-purple color? I'm looking for a non-LED DRL solution because I don't want to sacrifice the high-beam.

I've been looking at some PIAAs on ebay but I don't know if they are purplish when lit up. I like the ones that have the purplish coating on the glass.
Please help. Thanks!

Btw, I'm currently using:

Lowbeams: Stock HID
Parking lights: cheapy LEDs
Foglight: Nokya yellow
DRL: Stock (But changing soon)

^^^
What brand of LED's did you use for your drl's? And when you actually turn your high beams on, does it give any amount of light (I know I'm not expecting much but just wondering)

Retrofitted headlights:
SC430 projectors with E30 clear lenses spaced for purple/blue cutoff: modded 4300k d4s bulbs to fit into projectors.
Fogs: philips d2s 4300k rebased 9006
Parking lights: piaa 4300k
DRL: OEM



The nice color flickering, purple/blue/green/white




Much wider beam and sharper, more colorful cut off then OEM. It is actually a lot brighter too.
