I had those cheesy purple hid bulbs awhile back in an integra... Took them off after 10 minutes of driving... They suck!~

Unhappy

I’ve been trying to match the interior door panel and dome lights to the factory green in the foot well and ignition ring. So far very little success, the 194 door panel light in green looks a more blue-green. Ordered a JDM (can’t remember the brand) green dome light and it burnt out in two weeks. I’ve even put a piece of stained glass in the dome light but it’s slightly yellower. At this point I think my only option is to try and find the green bulb covers like the factory uses. But I’m burnt out too…

they suck big time, most of them aren't hid at all, just hid wannabe, those cheap 10 bucks halogen bulbs used in civics and integras. don't use it on lexus.

if it's true hid, it's probably around 7000k, also useless for its purpose
