Default I'm going nuts trying to find pure yellow high beams!!!!!

I know this should proably be in a different section on the board but I though maybe someone here could help. I can't find the polarg pure yellow bulb for high beam, and its driving me nuts!!!!! I don't understand why they make the 9006, but not the 9005. ahhhhhh!!!!!!!! I googled it and I can only find pure yellow low beams. anyone have any ideas, or any stores they know of that has the pure yellow in a high beam? I have no problem finding a the low beam at all.

here is a link to what I'm looking at, but this is the low beam.
http://store.racinglab.com/po90puyesube.html

someone on honda-tech says they are getting them for their store, but he keeps on delaying on when they will get them.

I want to use my high beam as a fog/rainy/crappy weather light. I don't use my highs so much and wanted to try something different.

if I can't find a 9005 bulb, would a 9006 bulb work? I know people do the 9005 to 9006 conversion(high beam converted to a low beam) so I was thinking I could to a reverse conversion if I can't find the 9005 bulb.

as I posted in my original post.
I only plan on using it like a high beam, I'll only use it when there isn't any traffic in front of me.

Trying to be Honda-Tech JDM?

:fawk:


That aside, if you really want to use them in fog, etc....you better aim them down quite a lot, or they wont help.

, no I just want a yellow high beam so when I'm in the snow, or rain on the back roads I can see better.

the problem is finding the bulbs firts. I'll worry about the aiming after I find them.

Get some OEM fogs. They will much better serve your purpose. My OEM's are a night and day difference from no fogs at all and even with aftermarket fogs
