Interesting concept. Link?

I found the whole units on ebay but am concerned with reliability.

I'm sure there are others, this was just the first one I found on ebay

I'm gonna say worth $32.

Yellow LaminX isn't pale at all.
When I first turn them on, they're full-on green for a few seconds while the HID bulbs warm up. After that, they're bright yellow. The film does a perfect job with the color change.

I'm heading down in a few; I'll take a pic for you.

Update:

Here are the night shots:




First warming up (without Xenons on):



All warmed up (without Xenons):



Fog lights with Xenons:



^ You can see that it almost overpowers the Xenons if you have HIDs for your fogs.


Head on views:









Note: Mine are standard 4.3k bulbs with just a yellow LaminX film over the lens.

Family to the rescue!!! Thanks gents. I guess now that I re-read I should have been more specific.

I meant pale as in fog lights off. Not so much with them on which is why I inquired with them off. ZHP is TiAg so I'll see some contrast.

To me, it looks like the Ebay full deal may be it. I like how much color it has, when off. I wonder if I can swap the lenses or not. If not, I may pull mine and set them to the side for now.

Again you guys ROCK!

[HokieZHP]

Yes but with the white bulbs and just the lamin-x it is a very pale yellow. That is why I went with the Nokya bulbs as well

[Dave_B]

Is this pic with those bulbs as well?

lenses can't be swapped, they're glued in. Just buy the housing, it's easy to change the whole thing (one bolt)

Believe so yes. I think all the pics I posted have bulbs in them. I swapped them out over a year ago.
