    god please dont.

    The "blueish" color you are referring to actually reduces night visibility of the road. Its harder on your eyes and eyes of other drivers and does not light the road as well as a warm white glow of proper bulbs. Also any bulb with a blue tint film over the glass will produce less light output.

    It might look brighter but in fact it is not.

    Dont be that guy.

    Not sure they have a blueish color. I'm not trying to blind anyone I just want regular lights that have a blueish tint like the ones on BMW and Lexus even the new Silverado

    As said above, get a projector.... that will have a colorband like ur looking for.
    Can u picture a stage with a performer that has a projected light on them?
    The corona around the outer edge part thats blue.... same thing. Projector artifact
