mechdiff Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Today when I looked at my high beams and compared them to my low beams I noticed that the highs were a different colour. Since I bought this used I am not sure if the original owner swapped out the lows for a different type of bulb. I am assuming that they didn't The lows are kind of a bluish white colour and so far I like them, they seem to light up quite well and look sharp. The highs are more like your traditional yellow light. Any suggestions on a bulb that would match the low beams? Or did Subaru put a different colour for the high for a specific purpose? I used to be a Silverstar user in my old vehicle, definately a big fan and with them being used on the high beam I would not be worried about the burn out factor (that some people have mentioned) as the use will be limited. Update... Thanks for the reply, I actually pulled the low bulb out to take a look and I believe it to be an aftermarket deal. MTEC sold in Japan I believe. You can get them off of ebay but I don't know what model MTEC it is. So... I think I am going to switch them all out for Silverstars next year or some other bright bulb. I still have the stock Sylvanias for high beams, they work ok for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxx Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 man, I'm looking for an answer on this too, kinda. I got HIDs & I want my hi-beams to match as close as possible but I've tried 2 diff bulbs & still get that yellowey color. "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama!
